We at CCSDS are actively monitoring the global COVID-19 health situation. 
We feel it is too early to make a final decision regarding the CCSDS 
meetings scheduled for May 2020. We are aware that many members of the 
CCSDS community currently face travel restrictions that would prevent 
their participation. The members of the CCSDS Management Councils will be 
consulted before any final decisions are taken.

Registration for the CCSDS meetings is opening now in the eventuality that 
the meetings are able to continue as planned. The CCSDS Secretariat will 
inform you of any changes to the plans for the spring 2020 meetings 
through emails to the CCSDS-All mailing list and posts on the public 
website. If you have any concerns or questions, please let us know at 
Secretariat at mailman.ccsds.org.

Guest rooms are defined as having one king or two double beds and the 
number of beds in the room is not guaranteed. To avoid charge to the 
attendee’s credit card, reservations should be cancelled by 6 p.m. 
forty-eight hours prior to the scheduled check in date. Cancellation after 
that time may result in a guest room cancellation fee, not to exceed one 
night’s lodging. Guest rooms shall be reserved and paid by the individual 
attendee with the attendee’s credit card, or other Marriott accepted 
method of payment. Attendees are not exempt from the 15% per night lodging 
tax or the $2 per night city surcharge.
IMPORTANT: Please note the following instructions and process:
1) All Meeting Registrants must have a CWE login. If you do not, then you 
may request one at http://cwe.ccsds.org/ReqLogin.aspx. Several of the 
links in this e-mail will prompt you for your CWE Login.
2) All Users should review their User Profile before registering for the 
spring 2020 Meetings. 
3) After your meeting registration is submitted you will receive a 
confirmation e-mail, like in previous registrations, and you will also 
receive a URL which allows you to edit your registration, even after 
registration closes.
Registration will close on Friday, 3 April 2020, four weeks before the 
start of the technical meetings to provide sufficient time for final 
logistics planning and attendee registration by NASA. If your attendance 
at the meetings is tentative, please register now. You may cancel your 
registration at a later date should it become necessary.
As with the CCSDS meetings last spring in Mountain View California, all 
CCSDS meeting attendees will need to register with NASA Marshall Space 
Flight Center in addition to registering on the CWE. We are endeavoring to 
make this process as simple as possible and will inform all registrants of 
the procedure as soon as it is finalized.
All attendees that require a Letter of Invitation for visa purposes should 
already have their letter. However, if you do not have a letter, please 
contact the Secretariat (Secretariat at mailman.ccsds.org) immediately so one 
can be arranged. 
As always, dress for the Technical Plenary meeting is Business Casual.

We look forward to seeing you in Huntsville, Alabama.

November 2020 and the CMC will meet 3-5 November 2020, both also in
