Re: [RPRWG] Preliminary Announcement for May Interim




My 2 cents on interim meetings:

It looks like we will have at least three options for interim meetings:
    1) line up with the Wireless groups
    2) line up with 802.3
    3) go independent.

I would suggest that we at least wait until the May interim is over to see
how well hooking up with other 802 groups works out.  Then, let's see how
long in advance we need to commit to making a choice.  I personally like to
see options remain open as long as possible so that we can optimize our
choices of dates and venue for 802.17 needs, rather than have to accept the
dates / venues that are driven by other groups.

Best regards,
