Hi George,
There is no financial obligation, and as IEEE SA is taking on the lead exhibitor role (and thus IEEE 802.1 is not), there is no obligation for IEEE 802.
“Lead exhibitor” was the term arrived at between IEEE SA staff (legal), 802.1 leadership and the conference organisers as a term emphasising seniority while avoiding terms such as “sponsor” which are not permissible or applicable. All is being done in concert with IEEE SA staff.
Regards,
-- John

Subject: RE: +++ 10-day ECM – Early Close +++ IEEE SA participation in TSN/A Conference
John – forgive me if this is a usual request, but I’m a little confused and the conference is next week.
Help me understand this.
IEEE SA is the lead exhibitor.
IEEE 802.1 doesn’t have direct responsibility.
- I assume this means there is no financial obligation, correct?
What exactly then does it mean for IEEE 802.1 to be “a” lead exhibitor, if IEEE SA is already “the” lead exhibitor?
I’m not trying to be academic, but I want to understand any obligations, financial or otherwise, IEEE 802 may be taking on, and whether we are putting ourselves at odds with IEEE SA.

Dear EC members,
Based on the following ePoll taken by IEEE 802.1, I would like to seek EC support for this activity.
802.1 electronic motion: “Approve IEEE 802.1 to be a Lead Exhibitor at the TSN/A Conference 2018 providing booth space is made available. The event is scheduled to occur on September 26-27, 2018 in Stuttgart, Germany.” Passed 49/0/1.
After discussion with IEEE staff, as last year, IEEE SA has decided to be listed as the lead exhibitor instead of 802.1. As a result, IEEE 802.1 won’t be taking direct responsibility for participation. Nevertheless, as IEEE SA is participating based on a request from the 802.1 chair, I would like to seek EC support for this activity.
Paul has delegated the conduct of the EC electronic ballot on the following motion to me. To obtain support as soon as practical I'm announcing the possibility of an 'early close' to this ballot (see below).
Regards,
-- John
