[To Chairs with Groups meeting during TPAC2007:  Please forward to your
Group.]

W3C Group Participants,
(apologies if you are part of the AC Meeting group and have received a
very similar mail earlier on 26 Sep)

In a little over a month, the World Wide Web Consortium's first
Technical Plenary / Advisory Committee Week [1], TPAC2007, will take
place in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.  My expectation is that this
will be W3C's largest meeting ever, as well as the most interesting.

Agenda.
* If know you will attend TPAC2007, or are looking for reasons to do so,
here is the near-final agenda for the Technical Plenary Day ...

-- http://www.w3.org/2007/11/07-TechPlenAgenda.html

Tech Plenary Day sessions include topics important to the future of the
Web and of W3C:  a view of W3C from outside developers and designers,
HTML/XHTML, openness of Working Groups, video on the Web, URI-based
extensibility, lightning talks (always fun), and a presentation by and
discussion with Tim Berners-Lee.

Registration.
* Closes 19 October...

Hotel.
* Please make reservations very soon ...
-- http://www.w3.org/2007/11/TPAC/overview.html#Hotel
It is peak autumn season in the New England, and our low hotel room rate
will expire at 5pm ET on 3 October (or when the rooms are sold out).

Sponsorships.
Your sponsorship of TPAC2007 is still very much welcome, and, we
believe, a good value for your organization ...

The meeting this year will have much higher public visibility relative
to previous years (press, bloggers, etc.).  Please check with your
marketing department or others to see if this might be a good
opportunity. Deadline is 15 Oct.

We look forward to seeing you in Cambridge next month.

Best Regards,

Steve
