Final agenda for Oct. 23-24 face-to-face meeting

The following is the final agenda for the HTML Working Group
October 2008 face-to-face meeting.

Note that we are starting at 9am each day (not 8:30), and have
scheduled 90 minutes for lunch breaks (because people have asked
for longer breaks to have more opportunities for informal
discussions).

Also, we have added space in the agenda for concurrent
"unconference" presentations/discussions, and a second room
available -- the "Exec 4" room, upstairs and through the doors
opposite the hotel reception desk.

If you have proposals for unconference sessions or other additions
to the agenda, feel free to reply to this message with your proposal.
