November Plenary Meeting of IEEE 803
Colleagues:
It's one week until our meetings in Tampa. I would like to remind
everyone that the cut-off date for submitting presentations is Tuesday,
October 31.
Please send your request for presentation to the Chair, along
with a PDF copy. Please send a PDF copy to David Law
(David_Law@xxxxxxxxxxxx), our
Webmaster, and request that he post it to the November Plenary Meeting
Materials for 802.3af area. The goal is to have all presentations on the
site prior to the
meeting dates. Presentations which are not on the Website one week prior to
September 12 will be scheduled on a "space-available" basis. Hard copies of
the presentation must be provided in order to present. The reproduction
costs are the responsibility of the presenter. The Chair will not sign-off
copy requests made to the 802 meeting office.
Please remember that we are doing votes to affirm motions made during our
Task Force meetings at the 802.3 Working Group level. Please attend the
opening and closing 802.3 plenary meetings on Monday afternoon and Thursday
morning.
I would like to hear from you as soon as possible, even if your presentation
is not yet complete. I would like to avoid a rash of last-minute requests.
So far, it's been pretty quiet out there...
David Law has asked me to remind everyone of the requirements for the
"Document Info" fields in the PDFs:
When PDF files are produced for placing on the web site please make sure
that the "Document Info" fields of the PDF file are completed as follows. To
do this is in you own interest as it will make it easier for others to
locate your presentation.
Title :- Place the title of your presentation here
Subject :- IEEE P802.3af
Authors :- Place the presentation authors here
