Announcement and preliminary agenda for MULTI6 WG interim meeting
=================================================================


Date:  Monday June 14, 2004
Time:  09:00 - 17:00 (including breaks)
Place: Loews Beach Hotel, Santa Monica, CA, USA

This is the same location as the North American IPv6 Summit;
see http://www.usipv6.com/ for full logistics and hotel discount 
code. (Of course, you may also wish to register for the Summit.)

For the Loews, make your hotel reservation ASAP, certainly before 
May 21st to get the discount. There are many other hotels and plenty
of restaurants nearby.

The room will hold about 100 people; at the moment we do not plan
on requiring formal advance registration. However, since we need to
budget for refreshment breaks, we will ask for a count nearer the
time.

An informal "Bar BOF" will be held in the afternoon or
early evening of Sunday June 13 to prepare for the main
meeting.

The goal of the meeting is to reach common ground on architectural
analysis and on the impact of various classes of solution. It is
*not* to discuss solutions in detail or to choose one of them.

Draft agenda (comments welcome).


1. IPR reminder, logistics, agenda bashing (co-chairs, 10 min.)
