The W3C Working Group, Technical Plenary and Advisory Committee meetings week (TPAC 2010), will be held in Lyon, France at "Cité Centre de Congrès de Lyon" [1], from 1 to 5 November. We are aware that these dates are the week before the ISWC and IETF meetings;\ we tried diligently to find a convenient venue that was available on another week but unfortunately due to our late start on that task we found few viable alternatives. [1] http://www.ccc-lyon.com/ The Centre de Congrès de Lyon is a very large conference facility with many amenities in a single area. It is also the venue chosen for the 2012 World Wide Web conference (which fact contributed to our getting favorable terms for the facility). There are 3 hotels housed within the conference center proper and many other hotels nearby and throughout Lyon. A list of hotels at various price ranges as well as other details will be included on an overview page we will send shortly. The current plan is to hold Group meetings on Monday 1 Nov, Tuesday 2 Nov, Thursday 4 Nov, and Friday 5 November. The Technical Plenary Day will be held all day Wednesday 3 November. The AC Executive Session will start on the evening of Tuesday 2 November and will be continued in the morning of Thursday 5 November. A registration fee of 40 Euros per day will be charged to defray a portion of the costs of the venue and necessary services. So that we can make the appropriate adjustments to our contract with the conference center by the necessary deadlines, I ask a Chair of each Group to complete the WBS Questionnaire [2] telling us if and when your groups would like to meet during this week. (Remember, if you chair multiple groups you will need to appoint an alternate to complete the questionnaire all but one of your groups.) [2] http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/34786/TPAC2010/ We ask that you complete at least the date preference, estimated attendance, flexibility, joint meetings, and overlap portions of this survey by 16 April 2010. Please discuss the meeting within your Group at the soonest possible time and coordinate with other groups with whom you would like to meet. The Face-to-face and cross-group meetings at previous TPACs have proven to be quite valuable to our W3C work. Please consider how this meeting fits into the milestones for your deliverables and also take into account any restrictions on travel your participants may be facing. Thank you all for your cooperation and continued support. I am sure you join me in looking forward to a fruitful and interesting TPAC2010.
