Dear Colleagues,
This is the announcement that the IEEE 802.3 Working Group will hold an interim meeting from 19h00 to 21h00 EST (UTC-5) on Thursday 25 January 2024, at the Hilton St Petersburg, Bayfront, St Petersburg, FL, USA, during the IEEE 802.3 January 2024 interim
meeting series. As with all meetings held during the January 2024 interim meeting series, the IEEE 802.3 Working Group interim meeting will be held in person, with provision for remote attendance provided on a best-effort basis. Please find the call information
below, I will send a meeting invitation shortly. Registration is
REQUIRED BY ANYONE THAT ATTENDS ANY MEETING during the IEEE 802.3 January 2024 interim meeting series including this IEEE 802.3 Working Group interim meeting. Registration
information can be found at <
https://www.eventcreate.com/e/ieee8023>. Please note that the deadline for the discounted early registration fee is Thursday 21 December 2023
AoE (23:59 UTC-12).
By holding an IEEE 802.3 interim meeting series, which is a series of individual IEEE 802.3 Working Group and IEEE 802.3 Working Group subgroup interim meetings, I can grant attendance credit based on attendance at those individual interims as described
in the IEEE 802.3 rules. The IEEE 802 Working Group P&P say, however, that 'Membership may be declared at the discretion of the Working Group Chair (e.g., for contributors by correspondence or other significant contributions to the Working Group).'. As a result,
to simplify attendance recording, as we have always done for IEEE 802.3 interim meeting series in the past, I'll grant meeting credit to any individual that attends a meeting on two of the four meeting days of the January 2024 IEEE 802.3 interim series.
We will gather two records of attendance: [1] the attendance tracking tool (IMAT); and [2] attendance books in each face-to-face meeting along with the teleconference tool attendance. The IMAT attendance tool will be the only official record of attendance
for building and maintaining WG membership. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO LOG YOUR ATTENDANCE IN THE IMAT ATTENDANCE TRACKING TOOL. There is no requirement for the IEEE 802.3 Recording Secretary or any other IEEE 802.3 officer to add your attendance
to the IMAT attendance tracking tool if you forget to register it during a meeting. The meeting attendance books along with the teleconference tool attendance will be used to record the attendance in the minutes for each meeting and you must review the respective
minutes to make sure your attendance in each meeting is recorded correctly.
I look forward to seeing you in St Petersburg.
Best regards,
David Law
Chair, IEEE 802.3 Working Group
