Re: [802SEC] CD ROM
I also second Roger's proposal. It will also be significantly easier to
administer and save time for attendees who will then get the CD when they
register, as opposed to having to miss meeting time to stand on line and get
their CD. I'm sure that Face-to-Face Events will also appreciate the
significant simplification for them.
