> Jim, It will work fine with current Hotel arrangements. It may even help to soften the blow of our canceling the Friday Closing Plenary. No one was suggesting doing the two meetings in parallel. The Thursday - Saturday agenda proposed by Howard seems quite workable and allows full participation by those who do both. I even think the presence of the Stds Board may encourage more folks to stay over to see what it's about and hopefully see their standards get approved on the spot. I also think a few of the Stds Board members may plan to come in a day or two early to get a chance to see 802 in action.
