[802SEC] New IMAT beta test at 802 Wireless Interim in Atlanta
Attention IEEE 802 Working Group Chairs and Officers
Over the past few months the SA Staff has been working with a few 802
Working Group members to enhance the IMAT application. We have gathered
requirements, documented, planned, scheduled, and alpha tested the "new"
IMAT application. I am happy to announce that the team will be using the
new features in a beta test during the Wireless Interim in Atlanta May 13
- 17, 2012. IEEE Staff (Christina Boyce, Greg Marchini, and Jeric Newby)
will be on site to ensure a smooth beta test. Pending results from the
beta test, our plan is to decommission the "old" IMAT in time for the July
2012 802 Plenary.
NOTE: During the 802.3 and 802.1 interim meetings in May (next week) these
groups will continue to use the "old" IMAT application for attendees and
will notice some new features for the Manager access.
The following link will provide you with the screen shots and
functionality of the "New" IMAT application.

Some major improvements made to the "new" IMAT include:
- One application/one url for both manager and attendee access:
The url for accessing IMAT (both Attendee and Officer) will be
https://imat.ieee.org
No delay between meeting information update and attendee view
Immediate updates to attendance information
- Manager Access enhancements
All reports are now in one location
"Delete All" breakout capability
Meeting Room location entered will show up on attendee view
Wiki for venue information
Ability to delete a meeting where attendance was logged. Attendee
will receive an email notification.
All Officers (as entered in myProject) have read/write access to
IMAT Manager
- Attendee enhancements
Overlapping timeslots, if chosen will warn the attendee before
continuing
Affiliation confirmation screen added
New look and feel
New URL for access
The team will continue to work through the beta test next week and
continue with a few more enhancements to ensure a successful Plenary
session in July. Thanks to the team for moving this project along in a
timely manner and giving 100% to the accuracy and success of the
application.

Volunteers: Rick Alfvin, Jon Rosdahl, Adrian Stephens
