Hi Beau,
The NTIA meeting is on the 28th of February; I will
also be there.
Please note the following:
"Due to security requirements and to facilitate entry
to the Department of Commerce building, anyone wishing
to attend must contact Ashley Heineman at (202)
482–0298 or aheineman at ntia.doc.gov at least five (5)
days prior to the meeting in order to provide the
necessary clearance information. Attendees should
arrive at least one-half hour prior to the start of
the meeting and must present a valid passport or other
photo identification up their arrival. Members of the
public will have an opportunity to ask questions at
the meeting."
regards,
Danny
