As in July 2017, these participants are policy makers/regulators. The program will begin on Sunday, March 4th with an "Introduction to IEEE 802" from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm. At this session, the fellows will be asked to introduce themselves, including describing their role in their organization. We will then give an overview of IEEE 802.

I would like to ask if each Working Group Chair (or their designee) could give a brief overview of your working group and current activities. The time slot is a maximum of five minutes and, if you would like to use slides, a maximum of two slides (if you want to use slides).

All members of the EC are invited to attend this session, but if you do not have a defined role for this session, please do not feel that you are required to attend. Please note that, as these participants are regulators/policy makers, no food or beverage will be served during this meeting.

Please confirm to Jodi if you (or your designee) will participate in this session.

Cheers,

Glenn.

Glenn Parsons - Chair, IEEE 802.1
