> Jonathan, A key question we need answered before we can advise you on this
> is the following:
> "Is this meeting to be open to any/all IEEE 802 registered attendees?"
> If the answer is Yes, then it could be considered a special interest
> sub-task group of the HSSG and be entitled to free 802 meeting space and AV
> support. If on the other hand, it is a private meeting that is only open to
> invitees (e.g. forum members, etc.), then it cannot be associated with IEEE
> 802 and must provide all it's own facilities. We must of course recognize
> that if we provide facilities for one special interest group to work on
> their proposal, that we will be expected to provide similar facilities for
> other such groups. As long as the process is open and non-discriminatory,
> there is precedent for supporting such activities. If it is closed or
> private we cannot provide any support. We would be willing to work with the
> hotel to allow for unused space at the hotel to be rented at the current
> rates, just as we would for any other piece of hotel business, but we
> generally recommend that such functions be held off-site to avoid any
> possible mis-interpretation. Fortunately, in this case, the
> Albuquerque Convention Center is right across the
> street from the HR Albuquerque, and they have a ton of meeting space at
> fairly reasonable rates which I'm sure they would be only too happy to
> provide. So if private is what they're looking for that would be an
> excellent choice and we can stay entirely out of the loop.
