We look forward to seeing many of you next week at the fourth annual
Best Bits pre-IGF meeting in João Pessoa next Sunday, 8 November.<br>
<br>
<b>Registration</b><br>
<br>
This email is being sent to those who have already registered, and
to those whom I know that plan to be there but who haven't
registered yet, and to the the main Best Bits mailing list for good
measure. Officially, registrations have already closed and the
venue has reached the booked capacity (40 pax); nevertheless if you
do still plan to be there, you have two more days to register so
that we can give the venue a week's notice of the increased
numbers. Registering is a simple process of visiting
<a href="http://bestbits.net/events/best-bits-2015/" target="_blank">http://bestbits.net/events/best-bits-2015/</a> and clicking the "RSVP"
button on the right.<br>
<br>
<b>Schedule</b><br>
<br>
Please also take a look at the latest revised schedule, which
remains subject to change. You can do this by visiting
<a href="http://bestbits.net/events/best-bits-2015/" target="_blank">http://bestbits.net/events/best-bits-2015/</a> and clicking the "Latest
agenda" tab. We have had to shift the times back to accommodate an
evening event at the hotel, which means that registration will begin
at 8:30am allowing us to commence the proceedings promptly at
9:00am, and the meeting will end at 5:00pm. If you would like to
volunteer for any session as a presenter, timekeeper, moderator etc,
please let us know.<br>
<br>
<b>Background documents</b><br>
<br>
Our website includes the facility for any user who has registered
for the meeting to upload background documents for the sessions that
they are participating in. To save time, we ask that anyone has
reviewed these documents ahead of time. To save paper, we will not
have printed copies of all of the documents for participants (though
copies of some may be available). Currently there are four uploaded
PDF documents and one linked document related to the meeting
sessions, but more will be added as the meeting date approaches, so
please remember to check back.<br>
<br>
<b>Dinner</b><br>
<br>
There has been interest in a dinner on the Saturday night before the
meeting. It will likely be a no-host (ie. user-pays) dinner (unless
we end up with money left over from our budget, which might go into
a round of drinks for everyone). We are still confirming the time
and venue, but if you would be interested in attending that dinner,
please let me know by email so that I can get an idea of numbers.<br>
<br>
If you have any other questions, please let me know.<br>
<br>
Finally I would like to publicly express a note of thanks to Renata
Ribeiro for her logistical help on the ground, without whom this
meeting would have been, if not impossible, at least a lot more
difficult! Thanks Renata.<br>
