We will be providing the correct hotel links with the group code for hotel reservations in the January 2004 Interim meeting announcement. Please post this information on your working group website when it becomes available.

(f)All Working Groups meeting requirements and specifications must be emailed to Face To Face Events no later than November 28, 2003 in order to ensure best possible arrangements.

(g)Please confirm the networking requirements for these Interim Meetings. We will make arrangements for the wireless network to be installed at the Hyatt Regency Vancouver. Do the working groups of 802.1, 802.3, and 802.17 require the wireless network services or a wired café at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver? Please confirm to us, no later than October 31, 2003 or sooner.
