Details regarding meeting and registration for the IEEE 802.3 Sept 2026 Interim meeting may be found at https://ethernetalliance.org/ieee-802-1-802-3-september-2026-interim-session/.  Please note that registration and payment of the registration fee is required for all individuals who participate in the Interim meeting (in-person or virtual participation).  

The draft agenda for the Sept 2026 Session will be:

·       Consideration of comments submitted during the second recirculation IEEE Standards Association Ballot (D3.2).

Note - Any presentation requests not addressing comments against the draft will be heard pending time availability.

For the IEEE P802.3dj Task Force Sept 2026 Session, requests for presentation time must be made by Thursday 27 Aug 2026.  Individuals wishing to present are directed to use the following form:  [ https://forms.gle/kmVYdTBM3FQRLDHn8  ].     All presentation requests must be submitted via the form above, merely noting a presentation as part of a comment’s suggested remedy is insufficient.

The presenter shall e-mail a PDF, soft-copy version of the presentation to me at  jdambrosia@xxxxxxxxx  and cc Kent Lusted at kent.lusted@xxxxxxxxxxxx  by Monday 31 Aug 2026. Please be sure to include the related comment #s on the title page to assist the editorial team.  Also, please make sure that page numbers are included in your presentation.

Please review Procedure for Presenters web page: https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/public/presentproc.html 

Presentations addressing comments submitted against D3.2 should target 10 minutes in duration, excluding time for questions and answers.  Requests for presentation time greater than 10 minutes will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and the requestor should contact the chair prior to making the request to justify the additional time.  Please note that with the anticipated agenda, it is very unlikely that these requests will be honored.  

Furthermore, I encourage individuals to use the Task Force reflector to reach out to others in the spirit of consensus building.  As chair, I reserve the right to introduce individuals making similar topic requests in the continuing spirit of this encouragement.

As a reminder, please make sure that all requests for presentations or submissions of presentation material have no restrictive notices at the bottom of the email.  All such emails will be refused, and requests / presentations will not be acknowledged.  All individuals submitting presentations should review the Procedures for Presenters Page for the respective projects noted above.

It will be greatly appreciated that presenters review their own presentations to verify that they have followed the cited Presentation Style Guidelines.

To support the web site search tool used by the IEEE P802.3 web site the 'Document Information' fields of the PDF file must be completed as follows:

·       Title: Title of presentation

·       Author: Name(s) of author(s) & affiliation(s)

·       Subject: IEEE P802.3dj Task Force

Presentations that do not have the fields properly filled out will not be accepted.

Regarding Relative Cost Analysis

Presentations addressing relative cost analysis may require IEEE Risk management review if individuals do not follow guidelines provided in IEEE SA Anti-trust policy available at http://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/antitrust.pdf.

Please note that such IEEE Risk management review can take up to ~30 days. Individuals not budgeting sufficient time for review may have presentations scheduled for later meetings to allow these reviews.
