Re: [802.3_100GNGOPTX] Agenda & Schedule Updated



Chris,

Agree with your concerns about the compressed time for this part of the
meeting and realize why Dan has to do it as he has done, and said he would.

I'd feel the limited time would be put to better use with 7 mins of
discussion on each presentation rather then the presenting of it.  We can
all review the material beforehandŠ
