there will be no UPD meeting during the June meetings (as currently

Subject: PWG> Info on the June PWG Meetings in the Boston area
Cc: ccm at uscore.underscore.com
Greetings,
Following is the current information for the series of PWG meetings
to be held in June:
Date: June 23-27
Location:
Sheraton Tara Nashua
Tara Boulevard
Nashua, NH 03062
Ph. 603-888-9970
Fax 603-891-4179
Rooms: $89.00 per night
Cutoff date: 6 June 1997
===> BE SURE TO ASK FOR THE PWG/UNDERSCORE RATE <===
Meeting Schedule:
Monday - P1394
Tuesday - P1394
Wednesday - IPP
Wed nite - UDP
Thursday - IPP
Thu nite - JMP
Friday - PWG/SENSE
Note there are two scheduled *night* sessions. This could become normal
for the PWG, considering the number of active subgroups and attendant
deadlines.
The hotel is about 5 miles from Underscore's offices, so we're thinking
about holding the Friday SENSE session in our offices so that we can demo
the current work (and let folks kick the tires, etc). This should also
reduce the meeting costs. More on this later.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
You can certainly fly into Boston for these meetings; the hotel is
about 40-45 minutes from Boston's Logan International airport.
However, you might very well consider flying into Manchester, NH, as
this is a fairly new (and expanded) airport that is both closer to
Nashua and far easier to deal with than Boston. We strongly urge you
to consider using Manchester instead of Boston, particularly if you
expect to rent a car and are not used to Boston-area driving rules/habits.
Underscore expects to provide quite a bit more information in the next
week or so, including maps, site-seeing info, travel aids, etc. Also,
we hope to make arrangements with some local limousine services that will
allow you low-cost, low-hassle transportation without having to rent a
car.
If anyone needs information about other types of hotels (eg, the
Marriott... ;-), please let me know and we'll get you that information.
Please send a "ping" message to me (mailto:jkm at underscore.com) if you are
planning to attend any of the above meetings. Please include the following
in the message:
- Which meeting days you will be attending
- Which hotel you will be staying in
Please try to send me the pings as soon as you can. Feel free to contact
me at anytime for additional info, etc.
