Colleagues, OK, here's the report from John Hawkins. :-) Thanx, Buzz Please note my contact info: Dr. Everett O (Buzz) Rigsbee Executive Secretary, IEEE-802 LMSC 7750 80th Place SE Mercer Island, WA 98040-5912 ph/fx: 206-236-2229 cell: 206-818-4978 BRigsB@ieee.org -----Original Message----- From: Paul Nikolich [mailto:paul.nikolich@att.net] Sent: Monday, November 16, 2009 4:58 AM To: Everett O. (Buzz) Rigsbee; BRigsB@ieee.org Subject: Fw: [802SEC] Treasurer's report ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Hawkins" <jhawkins@ieee.org> To: <STDS-802-SEC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> Sent: Saturday, November 14, 2009 9:38 PM Subject: [802SEC] Treasurer's report > Folks, > > Recall that I will not be able to be with you at the opening EC due to > some unavoidable work conflicts. I trust you will have good and > productive meetings in my "home" town and I hope you enjoy your stay. > > So here goes my "virtual" Treasurer's report for your consideration: > > 1. I've enclosed the customary Treasurer's opening report which > includes the status/outcome of our July plenary in San Francisco. As > you will note, we ran a deficit of $28,437 which was not quite as bad > as we expected, since attendance was fairly good. We were able to hold > most expenses in line, but bottom line, San Francisco is an expensive > place to hold meetings any more. Note this is only a draft and a few > more items still will accrue to this meeting budget, but it should be > pretty close. > > 2. Our operating reserve is $1,250,515 once all commitments are > factored in. This is down a bit (makes sense, since we ran a deficit > last time) but within reason. Recall that we will need a buffer going > into the non-North American session in the coming years. So we need to > keep an eye on this. > > 3. Note that I have *not* included the Atlanta estimate/budget report > as I still need to work with the meeting staff for the latest > estimates. I will provide this by the closing EC on Friday. I am > optimistic that we will be north of break-even for this session, but > as you know, it all depends on attendance levels. > > 4. I've also enclosed Karen's usual Get802 report. My only thing to > add is that IEEE staff is still evaluating the P&L for the program, > and until we have better information, we will continue with our > current agreement to provide $75/attendee to the Get802 program. > > 5. Hopefully you received Buzz's email about the proposal to change > our meeting fee structure starting in March. Please spend some time > discussing with the EC and your WGs so we can make a decision on > Friday. I can also get back to you by email during the week if that's > any help (jhawkins@ieee.org). > > 6. We are interested in securing sponsors for our network bandwidth > provider in future sessions. This could be a corporate sponsorship (in > the form of $$) or an "in-kind" sponsorship (ie. an operator willing > to provide us the service during a given week). In return the sponsor > would be recognized with signage in the various break/registration > areas, on the web, and can provide a small logo-ed give-away if > desired (pens, etc). If you or someone you know is interested, please > see Rick Alfvin about the technical requirements, or me/Buzz about the > sponsorship details. > > Again, have a great meeting and I'll see you later in the week, > > John Hawkins > Treasurer, IEEE 802 > jhawkins@ieee.org > > ---------- > This email is sent from the 802 Executive Committee email reflector.
