Re: [802SEC] Registration Fee Waiver for Lee Pucker
Au contraire, mon frere, A tutorial is a scheduled technical meeting
that is part of a plenary session, and therefore requires attendees to
be registered. However we have a long-standing precedent of allowing
persons who are only attending for the purpose of presenting at a
Tutorial or Opening plenary to be registered as guests if they have a EC
sponsor who will vouch that they are attending for the benefit of the
802-community.
We have been doing this for many years. The rules do NOT say that a
tutorial is not a scheduled technical meeting as part of a plenary.

Buzz/Mat-
By my read (and, I believe, by precedent) there is no requirement to be
registered to attend a tutorial
8. LMSC SESSIONS
There is no membership requirement for
attendance at an LMSC plenary session or
an interim session of an LMSC subgroup;
they are open forums. However, anyone
who attends any portion of a technical
meeting that is part of an LMSC plenary
session or an interim session of an LMSC
subgroup is obligated to comply with the
registration requirements for the session.
For the purposes of these P&P, a "technical
meeting" is defined as, but is not limited
to, any meeting of an LMSC WG, TAG, ECSG,
any of their subgroups, or any call for
interest at an LMSC session.
A tutorial given by an ECSG is not an actual meeting of that SG.
Attendance at tutorials has never, to my knowledge, been taken or
counted
for anything.
Thus, I believe, that no waiver or registration is required.
It would be a courtesy to notify the EC
It would be "nice" to provide a guest badge as long as it is not
confused
with a registration badge

Hi Mat, If he is only attending to present to the Tutorial and will
not attend any other meetings or tutorials or the social then he can be
exempted from the Registration Fee. He will need to be approved by the
EC on Monday, register as a guest, and will need to get a Guest badge to
wear from the F2F staff. If he should be observed attending any other
802-meeting/function he will have to pay the on-site registration fee
($500.00US). As his sponsor you will be expected to make him aware of
rules governing guest attendance and to vouch for his qualification for
guest-only status. We will look to you to provide any necessary rule
enforcement counseling that may be required should there be an
infraction.
Other than that, it's a slam-dunk !!! :-)

Hi Paul,
I have one person, Lee Pucker, who represents the SDR Forum and will be
only attending the TV Whitespace Tutorial to present.
I'd like to request a registration fee waiver for him. Do I need to do
anything specific?
Thanks!
Mat
