You will all have seen earlier requests from my co-chairs, Kathleen and
Adrian, to complete country profiles and/or say if you wish to present
at our interest group session (0900 Saturday morning, in case you had
forgotten.)
You may also know that, in their absence, it will be just me chairing
the meeting. I want to firm up the agenda now and decide how long each
speaker will have. We only have 20 minutes allocated for what are described
as ‘lightning talks’, which traditionally are 3 minutes with at most one slide.
I won’t be strict about the number of slides, but will be strict with time.
So far, I know of requests to present from:
Ville Tenhuner, Finland
Linda Naughton, UK
Kenton McHenry, USA
Mark Leggot, Canada
We can accommodate a handful more. If you intend to talk and are not
on that list, let me know by 5pm Denver time today. Also, please get
your slides to me by midnight tonight. I don’t want to waste time
fiddling around with memory sticks tomorrow morning. Thank you to those
who have already sent me their material.
We can have more than one talk per country; it’s clear that many
countries have multiple infrastructure providers at present. Part
of our discussion will be about the suitability of the current template
for capturing what we need to know.
The agenda for the morning is here:

I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow morning.
