Nancy, Your response below is a bit unclear. Please note per the draft Invitations to separate sponsor hospitality suites and/or product showcases during the IEEE 802 Plenary Session are allowed provided they are clearly NOT a part of the IEEE 802 Plenary Session and flyers to announce those sponsor events may be displayed on information tables. In addition, the 802 community is willing to work with you on providing subject matter experts at no charge should you wish to produce a local workshop on 802 Standards either just before or just after the Plenary Session. I was not advocating highlighting the separate sponsor hospitality suites / or product showcases option any more than is already noted. I was advocating highlighting the educational opportunities, either through the University program or tutorial sessions, where product pitches / mktg / advertising for companies is not allowed. Regards, John From: Nancy Bravin [mailto:nbravin@EARTHLINK.NET] Jon, John, Re: research centers. Some countries not only work through Universities, Hospitals, stand alone or adjoining research centers, Gov't Agencies, and often these same institutions partner with other countries themselves in like organizations. This could potentially allow for multiple countries to participate in funding, when some are more able to on a financial level. I believe that the effect will be Plenaries with increased attendance, shared funding, and allow for host countries companies to show what they are doing, in advertising tables, while meeting with International Companies on specific 802 family interests. Tutorials may become a combination of sharing knowledge from both 802 and the host(s) countries at so many levels not always done today at Plenaries.

I think it would be beneficial to list the University program in the letter, as well as other possible educational (tutorial) activities. John From: owner-stds-802-sec@ieee.org [mailto:owner-stds-802-sec@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Nancy Bravin Just a thought, since some countries sponsor events through academic Universities and or research centers, can that be another avenue to appeal to?

Does the attached get us closer to acceptable? Jon
