I gather then that February 6-8 is for certain and that travel planning can
commence?



Cordially,

Hello Everyone,



Just wanted to let you all know our current status on future TEITAC meeting
dates:



As of the end of the Sept. 2006, TEITAC meeting, the Committee projected the
following meeting schedule:

* November 8-9, 2006; [HELD]

* February 6-8, 2007; [To be held on those dates; still finalizing a
venue. It will be in DC]

* March 27-29, 2007; [Under discussion. See THIS email]

* May 22-25, 2007; [Under discussion. See THIS email]

* and July 25-27, 2007. [WILL CHANGE. Possibly Sept. 2007. See this
email.]

March 2007 Meeting:

The Access Board staff and co-chairs are going to finalize dates for March
2006. Professor Yamada is correct in that we discussed some possible changes
to the March 2007 date, since both CSUN and CTIA have conferences in that
month. This was discussed at the teleconference with the co-chairs,
subcommittee co-chairs and Access Board staff on 11/17/2006.

* As a possible solution, we MIGHT consider moving the March 2007
meeting date to April 2007. On the other hand, we MIGHT leave the proposed
March 2007 date right where it is currently (March 27-29, 2007) The
consensus of the subcommittee co-chairs on the teleconference was to let AB
staff and the co-chairs finalize the March 2007 date. [Mike and Jim, I will
contact you under separate cover re: when AB staff and you talk. Thanks.]

IF anyone has any violent objections to moving the March meeting to April
2007 (avoiding any religious holidays, etc. to the extent that we can
identify any potential conflicts) PLEASE LET ME KNOW, IDENTIFYING ANY
CONFLICTS. [I already have the religious holidays noted. Anything else? ]



IF YOU DON'T OBJECT TO THE IDEA OF HAVING A MEETING IN APRIL, YOU DON'T NEED
TO SAY ANYTHING.



N0NE OF THIS IS YET SET IN STONE. Until we affirmatively say something,
assume that the original meeting dates as announced at the end of the Sept.
2006 TEITAC meeting apply



MAY 2007:

* In addition, we MAY shift the MAY meeting date [currently May 22-25,
2007] by one day, to avoid travel on the Friday before Memorial Day weekend.
;

* ;

* WE WILL ANNOUNCE ANY CHANGE to the MAY 2007 Dates if/when they
happen.

* Milestone at the MAY 2007 meeting: At that time, the Committee will
take a look at the status of the Committee's work, and give the Access Board
staff some idea of whether or not they might want MORE meeting dates. That
is, would the Committee want MORE working meetings after May 2007, or would
the report be ready at the first meeting after the May 2007 meeting?
[Currently the 6th meeting is set for July 25-27, 2007, but this date will
change. See below]

*

JULY 2007:

* The original meeting date is July 25-27, 2007. This WILL change.
There WILL NOT be a meeting in July 2007. Why? The Access Board decided at
their November 2007 to hold an out of town meeting in Denver, CO in July
2007. The most likely time for a 6th meeting will be in SEPTEMBER 2007. WE
are looking at Sept. 2007 dates now.



Thank you for your forbearance. We will communicate any revised dates AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Tim Creagan

Is Feb 6-8 the third/next meeting? I had a note that included tentative
dates in January as well.

Also can we get finalization on start/end times on the February meeting?
For some of us, airfare costs increase exponentially if we don't get
reservations as far in advance as possible.

Thanks,

Tim,

At the previous meeting, we discussed about meeting schedule (especially
about a possibility of March meeting coincides with CSUN). And we concluded
that the schedule will be decided after consultation among co-chairs of the
parent and sub-committees and secretary.

The Wiki calendar shows that the February meeting will be from 6 to 8, and
the March meeting will be from 27 to 29. Is it the conclusion of the
consultation? Or will you change the meeting schedule?

I would like to ask you to announce the final conclusion ASAP so that we can
plan our trip from LA to DC, from DC to LA or LA only.
