RE: TPAC 2014 Planning

It has been pointed out that the registration form only allows selection of one Working Group for attendance as a member on each day of TPAC.  If you intend to attend the Geolocation session along with other listed groups, you can also select "observer" status on the registration page.

The W3C is looking for as accurate numbers of attendees as possible for each Working Group so that they can space plan accordingly.

Thanks,

-Giri

* Based on your feedback [1], we are planning a CHAIRS BREAKFAST
  Tuesday, 28 October, 07:00-08:30. The main discussion point will be to continue dialog 
   to strengthen the Chairs community.  We will review the Chair training from last year.  
   We invite participants to bring their ideas and requests.


* Chairs, please be sure to complete the audio/video request form
  by 22 September (as we will not be able to handle on-site A/V
  requests):

* We've started a wiki to help people coordinate ad-hoc meetings
  (a new feature of TPAC 2015); we will continue to develop ideas
  for helping you make the ad-hoc meetings a success:
