Title: Call for presentations, Interim meeting May 16-17
The next meeting of the IEEE 802.3 Residential Ethernet Study Group will be May 16 and 17, 2005, from 8:30AM until 5:00PM CDT. Meeting information can be found at http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/3/interims/austin_0505.html

Requesting Presentation Time

Presenters shall request time by 5PM Pacific time on Thursday, May 12, 2005.
Requests shall be submitted to the Chair (for the time being, that means me, at the e-mail address below).

The presenter shall provide the following information:

  1. Name of presenter
  2. Title of presentation
  3. Length of time requested(30 minutes maximum, unless special arrangements have been made with the Chair. This should include time for questions and answers)

If the "requesting presentation time" deadline is missed, time will be provided on a best-effort basis following the completion of the regular agenda (or as deemed appropriate by the chair).

Presentation Submission

It is highly recommended a PDF, soft-copy version of the presentation be emailed to the Chair by Friday, May 13, 2005.

If the presentation submission deadlines are missed, the presenter will be allowed to present only if electronic copies or hard copies of the presentation are made available to the group at the beginning of the meeting and the group approves the addition of the presentation to the agenda.

Presentations shall be available to the group a minimum of 24 hours before a motion can be made on any material contained within the presentation.

Presentation Style Guidelines

Failure to meet guidelines may result in a loss of requested presentation time. Presentations must be submitted in PDF format.  Neither the chair nor the Web Master will convert presentations to PDF format.  Presentations not in
PDF format will be returned.
  1. Avoid graphic intensive backgrounds or other decorative graphics.
  2. No animations, audio clips, video clips, etc.
  3. Presentation should be less than 1.4 MB.
  4. No marketing pitches, product pitches or corporate pitches.
  5. No pricing, costs, ASPs, etc. are permitted.  Relative costs, ASPs, etc. are permitted (i.e. option 1 is 3x the cost of option 2).
  6. No company copyright or confidentiality statements.  All presentations are posted to a publicly available web site.  If the presentation is not ready for public disclosure, then it should not presented.
To support the web site search tool used by the IEEE 802.3 web site the 'Document Information' fields of the PDF file must be completed as follows:

Title :- Title of presentation
Subject :- IEEE 802.3 Residential Ethernet Study Group
Author :- Name(s) of author(s)

Document Information Fields
The 'Document Information' fields in a PDF file can be entered as follows:
Adobe Acrobat: Either use the menu options: 'File' -> 'Document Info' -> 'General' or the shortcut CTRL-D.
Adobe PDFWriter: When the 'Save PDF File As' dialog appears hit the 'Edit Document Info.' button, enter the information, and then hit the 'OK' button.

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Regards,

Michael D. Johas Teener, acting Chair, Residential Ethernet Study Group
