Fwd: W3C invites W3C Community Groups to meet at TPAC 2016

Hello Folks,

I have received from W3C an email about TPAC 2016. Is there a way to
organize one for WebHPC please. I am very interrested in this community,
even though there are not a lot of activity. Is there any chance to be on
this event for our specific group ?

Warm regards,

Hello,

As part of an experiment, we are creating an opportunity for W3C Community
Groups to meet at the upcoming W3C TPAC, held in Lisbon, Portugal, 19-23
September 2016.

About TPAC:
Since 2001, W3C has been hosting yearly TPACs [1].
This five-day event allows Working Groups (WG) and Interest Groups (IG) to
hold their face to face meetings in one place, on Monday/Tuesday and
Thursday/Friday, and have the opportunity to meet and liaise with
participants from other groups.
A Technical Plenary meeting takes place on the Wednesday of that week, most
of which is organised as "camp-style" breakout sessions. You may look at
the TPAC 2015 site for more detail [2].

CGs at TPAC experiment:
* W3C Community Groups can hold 2-hour meetings on Monday, Tuesday,
Thursday, Friday.
* We can accommodate 4 meetings per day, so 16 over the entire TPAC week.
* The meeting room can accommodate 20 persons, classroom style, equipped
with a screen and video projector and speaker-phone on demand.
* The daily TPAC 2016 registration fee (TBD) is the same; it includes
lunch, morning and afternoon coffee/tea break.
* Outside of their Community Group meetings, non W3C-Member CG participants
may attend as observers those Working and Interest Groups meetings who
accept observers (some groups may not permit observers, this is at the
Chair's discretion.)

Slot allocation:
* The W3C Team will open the TPAC 2016 subscription of groups on 7 March
2016.
* The W3C team will proceed with slot allocation, including selection
should there be more than 16 Community Groups subscribing.

We are hoping this is an opportunity that you find appealing. Please,
discuss within your Community Group.

Let us know if you have questions or need more information, by writing to <
team-community-process@w3.org>.

Thank you,
Coralie Mercier, Head of W3C Marketing & Communications
