<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Hi Dorothea,</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">it is indeed a
very good proposal. May be for some of the agencies at least the CMC reps
could travel and meet in person whenever possible ?</span>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri">at
the moment, business travel to foreign countries for DLR employees is not
impossible but requires a special permission. This permission will most
likely not be given for meetings which can also be held remotely, so -
unfortunately - the answer by DLR is also NO.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri">The
only possibility I personally see is to get this approval not for a big
group of people for the technical meetings, but just for myself to attend
the CMC meetings which have a much smaller audience.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri">With
so many CMC members being out of the office during August it proved too
difficult to schedule a midterm CMC meeting with a majority of members
present. I will be starting a new poll to select a date in September for
the CMC’s midterm meeting. CNES requires a decision about hosting the
fall CCSDS meetings in-person as quickly as possible. I would ask that
each CMC member reply to this email sharing their agency’s position on
in-person attendance for the fall CCSDS meetings, scheduled 18-28 October,
2021. Having conferred with Sami Asmar, I have included NASA’s position
in this message.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri"> </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri">In
preparing a schedule for the technical meetings, I have learned that CCSDS’s
Data Archive Interoperability, Onboard Wireless, and Optical Communications
Working Groups have decided that they will meet remotely this fall regardless
of CCSDS’s decision. I know of two other working groups that are currently
discussing this possibility. Please take this into consideration when forming
your agency’s position.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri"> </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri">NASA’s
travel policy at the moment is mixed as each center has determined their
own travel policy based on national and local regulations. No attendance
from NASA-JPL will be possible. Though NASA-GSFC NASA-MSFC, and NASA-JSC
attendance would be possible under their current policies, we expect this
not to be the case by 18 October 2021. The United States Centers for Disease
Control has placed the United States and France on their list of countries
with Very High risk of COVID transmission. We do not expect travel for
non-mission critical events to be possible beginning shortly.</span></p>
