Does that mean that there are some of us that you're not looking forward to meeting? :-P


Thanks!

Hi Webauthn,

Thanks to all who could join our productive face-to-face meeting today
in Berlin. Our next F2F is scheduled during W3C's annual Technical
Plenary and Advisory Committee week (TPAC), in September in Lisbon. We
aim to be reviewing a Candidate Recommendation draft, for
implementations and tests by then!

Specifically, Webauthn is slated to meet Tuesday, September 20. Group
members are also invited to the plenary day, Wednesday, Sept. 21, and to
review the schedule for other items of interest:

TPAC requires registration, and fees are lower if payment is completed
by 2 September. Please see below for further details:

Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
WG/IG Chairs, Advisory Board, TAG, Community Groups members who signed up
to meet,


Registration for TPAC is now open:

  TPAC 2016

  Centro de Congressos de Lisboa
  Lisbon, Portugal
  https://www.w3.org/2016/09/TPAC/


 **Chairs, please be sure to forward this information frequently to

 We invite all TPAC participants to:

 1) Register (see below).
 2) Make your hotel reservation via the hotel booking link:

W3C has arranged discount room rates from 17 (check-in) until 24 September
2016 (check-out) with three different hotels.
We strongly recommend to make hotel reservations before the Summer starts
(June, early July) as September is a very busy period in Lisbon.

------------------------------------------
Plenary Day 2016 (Unconference)

Plenary Day 2016 consists of unconference breakouts for TPAC participants.
  https://www.w3.org/wiki/TPAC2016


We invite attendees to suggest breakout sessions via the wiki:

Advisory Committee Meeting / Group Meeting Overlap
------------------------------------------

Group Meetings Schedule: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday:

 * 08:30-18:00: Traditional Group face-to-face meetings
 * 12:00-14:00: Lunch (each group will determine their lunch time)
 * 15:00-18:00: Unstructured time (for those groups that so choose)

Some groups have requested guidance on when to allocate Unstructured time
to break into parallel informal discussions within their groups, for more
cross-group conversation, or for more hallway conversation.

We encourage groups to have these informal discussions overlap the AC
meeting to minimize hard conflicts for AC reps, and we encourage all
groups to schedule their unstructured time at the same time, thus creating
more opportunities for interaction.

This year again we have scheduled the AC Meeting towards the end of the
day from 15:00 to 18:00 on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. We hope this
will minimize the likelihood of conflicts with group meetings.

AC Representatives who would also like unstructured time within their
Groups have the opportunity to use Monday and Friday and thus avoid
conflict with the AC meeting.

------------------------------------------
Remote participation
------------------------------------------

Working/Interest Groups may request telephone access for remote
participants. We plan to use MIT's webex system as we have done for the
past two AC Meetings.

If you plan to attend the Advisory Committee Meeting remotely, please let
us know on acregister@w3.org<mailto:acregister@w3.org> as the number of requests may play a role in
the level of service we provide.

IRC is available for all meetings.
