Hi Ron,
I don't mind the new date, but I do mind the uncertainty!
I have already been bouncing stuff from the original date into the period of
the proposed date. I'm sure the same applies to others.
So *please* get a confirmed date published ASAP.
Thanks for the cat-herding.
Adrian

Subject: RE: IAB/IESG Joint Design Session on Forwarding Plane
Operations,Administration and Maintenance
Folks,
Several members of the MPLS-TP community have indicated that they will be in
Washington, D.C. from October 25 to October 27. In order to reduce their
travel expenses and time away from home, they have asked if we could move
the IAB/IESG Joint Design Session on Forwarding Plane Operations,
Administration and Maintenance to October 28-29, piggybacking on that
conference. The conference would still be held at George Mason University in
Fairfax, Virginia.
If everyone is happy with this move, I would be glad to accommodate it. If
this move causes you any inconvenience, please email me, either on the list
or privately by COB September 1.
