August planning + TPAC preparation

Jeni and I were just talking Ivan and Phil about the WGs plans for
August. A couple of things:

1. August planning - will you be around for teleconferences?

We know that some/many of the WG are likely to be taking vacation
during August (and/or the remainder of July). It would help our
planning (e.g. whether/when to suspend telecons) if you could follow
up in this thread with an indication of your vacation plans, and
whether you think it would be better to skip calls for all or some of
August. I don't think this needs Doodle - please go into whatever
level of detail you prefer!

2. TPAC - time to start your travel planning!

As you will hopefully remember, we have a Face to Face meeting booked
as part of W3C's upcoming Technical Plenary week at the end of
October. Specifically mon and tues 27th/28th October. See
http://www.w3.org/2014/11/TPAC/ for full details of TPAC including
other WG meetings happening during the same week. It is the biggest
technical gathering of the W3C year and a good chance to keep in sync
with other efforts in the Web standards world.

See http://www.w3.org/2014/11/TPAC/#venue for venue and hotel
information.  The event is in the Santa Clara Marriott, Santa Clara,
California USA. According to the TPAC site, a W3C-negotiated room rate
is available if you book through the dedicated link ("You must book by
10/03/14 to receive the group rate."; I believe that means Oct 3rd not
Mar 10th :).

If you'd like to participate in the F2F please take a look into this
sooner rather than later, so you can get the best prices for travel
and accommodation.

cheers,

Dan
