[Cesg-all] Working lunches and CWE training

I'm generating the Security WG agenda - what time should I assume will
be the lunch break?  Noon?  1230?  1300?  Other?

Thanks

Howie

Area Directors and Working Group Chairs:

In an effort to improve the productivity of the CCSDS meetings in
Colorado 
Springs next January, I am delighted to inform you that NASA will be 
hosting a catered lunch each day. This lunch - which will be provided at
no 
cost to attendees - will normally be set-up in the Garden Pavilion (see 
http://elpomar.org/page.asp?pageid=0%7C6%7C51&id=0%7Cpenrose_house) at a

fixed time each day.

Since it would normally take people at least two hours to go
off-location 
to nearby restaurants, we hope that you will use this opportunity to 
arrange your meeting agendas to take advantage of a 45-minute lunch
break 
and thus significantly increase your available meeting time.

Having all participants together in a social setting at lunch time will 
also offer the opportunity for working groups to make technical 
presentations of general interest to CCSDS as a whole. The first 
presentation will be on the Spacecraft Monitor and Control architecture,

and it will occur during lunch on Tuesday 16 January. I'd like to get
three 
or four more groups to volunteer to give overview talks. Please contact
the 
Secretariat if you would like to seize this opportunity.

Finally, we are serious about getting all Working Groups to more 
effectively use their public and private web areas in the CCSDS 
Collaborative Work Environment (CWE) - see 
http://public.ccsds.org/sites/cwe/default.aspx. Accordingly, it is
planned 
that Brian Oliver will set up a workstation in the Penrose House on at 
least two days during the meetings week and will be personally available
to 
conduct hands-on training for Area Directors, Working Group chairs and 
other interested people. Brian will be contacting each of you directly
to 
schedule your training sessions.

Best regards
Adrian
