Hello George, The WG11 Closing Plenary was held on Thursday, 2020-07-16 from 9-11AM Eastern. We conducted one straw poll related to the electronic plenaries, results shown below. During the discussion, questions on the topics of incurred costs for electronic plenaries, and the expected amount of the registration fee were raised. Costs and fees in the range of $50 - $150 were estimated by some, for teleconference facilities for example. Also discussed was the likelihood of the fee varying by session, depending on venue cancellation fees. One member indicated that in the absence of a fee amount and the rationale, the member had to vote no. A question was also raised relating to paying for ongoing teleconference facilities. I am happy to poll the 802.11 membership on this and related topics in the future and suggest that we also provide
Thanks, Dorothy ======================== Are you willing to pay a registration fee for participation in electronic meetings held in place of plenary and interim face-to-face meetings?

On Behalf Of George Zimmerman Chairs – with regards to the questions for your groups, I suggest the following questions be asked. It will help us to collate the results, and to focus the responses. Please pay attention to the discrete choices given,
because free-form results could make understanding the answers difficult. Thank you, -george 1. Given that IEEE 802 incurs significant expenses cancelling (plenary) face-to-face meetings, it has been suggested that a meeting fee might be charged for attendance at electronic meetings substituting for those face-to-face
plenaries. What would you consider the highest reasonable and fair registration fee range to be: (select one) a. $800-$500 b. $500-$300 c. $150-$300 d. My employer/sponsor is unwilling to pay meeting fees for electronic meetings. 2. Once government and company restrictions have been lifted, what do you perceive as the reasonable number of face to face meetings (plenaries and interims) per year? 6 (pre-2020 amount, 3 plenaries, 3 interims): (below, the division between plenaries and interims is TBD) 4: 3: < 3: George Zimmerman, Ph.D. President & Principal CME Consulting, Inc.
