During the 76th IETF meeting, the Transport Area sponsored a Broadband Home Gateway BoF, called HOMEGATE. Since that time, interested IETF participants have been working to narrow the scope of the draft charter and to reach out to other Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) to ensure that the planned work is complimentary and not overlapping with their respective work. To further that goal, the IETF's Transport and Internet Areas intend to co-sponsor a two-day workshop on HOMEGATE between IETF-77 and IETF-78. This workshop is slated to take place on April 20-21, 2010 in London, England. In order to reserve a properly sized meeting facility, it is important for interested people to indicate their interest in attending AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Please do so at http://event.pingg.com/HomeGateLondonMtg NOTE: Due to potential venue limitations and the desire to allow participants from different stakeholder groups to be represented, physical attendance may need to be limited. Attendance will be confirmed at a later time (and certainly early enough for people to book reasonably priced travel accommodations). Remote listening or participation facilities of some sort will be available to all. PLEASE INDICATE YOUR INTEREST NOW if you wish to attend this interim meeting in person: http://event.pingg.com/HomeGateLondonMtg In addition: - You can find the HOMEGATE wiki at http://trac.tools.ietf.org/area/tsv/trac/wiki/HOMEGATE - You should join the HOMEGATE mailing list at https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homegate Thank you in advance for your interest and participation!
