Re: [802SEC] reminder - 802 meeting fee increases friday at 11:59PM UTC, not AoE



Geoff – at this time, we have announced this and announced this.  While I personally prefer AoE, and we discussed this earlier, please do not introduce changing the date some 50 hours prior to the deadline – it will only introduce confusion.

I suspect it’s probably to do with the fee collection tool. I’d support your assertion that we allow extension to AOE for the reduced rate and suspect it will be zero or single digits that would qualify. As George said, 850 registrants already. That’s pretty high.

George-

 

How did this happen?

I am under the impression that the EC passed a motion some years ago that all 802 actions (as opposed to IEEE actions) that have a calendar closing date of the format mm/dd/yyyy AOE.

 

I believe we should honor all registrations in that 12 hour period at the lower rate.

 

It is precisely because of this sort of confusion and inconvenience with quoting calendar closing dates that we adopted AoE.

 

Best regards,

 

Geoff Thompson

All – just a reminder, per the plenary announcement (http://802world.org/plenary/) the meeting fee increases Friday at 11:59PM UTC, not AoE.  I was just on a call where a number of individuals thought it was AoE, so you may wish to remind your groups not to wait until the last minute.

 

Additionally, I can report we currently have almost 850 registrants for the March meeting, and climbing.
