Dear WP1/16 Experts,
 
I am sending this email as preliminary notice of our intent, as discussed during this most recent SG16 meeting, to hold a Rapporteur Group meeting 10 - 14 March 2014 in Geneva.
 
The complete text of the meeting invitation can be found on the AVC site here:

As was mentioned during the SG16 meeting, hotel space during that week may be limited due to other events.  However, booking early you should be able to find accommodations.  We prepared the invitation a little early both to ensure that people have ample time to find accommodations and, due to the holidays approaching over the next few weeks in both the east and west, to ensure people have time to get a visa (if required).
 
Note that, while the document registration deadline in the invitation is rather generous, we really need to have a fairly accurate count of registrations by early February so that we will know that we have sufficient contributions to go forward with the meeting.  Therefore, please register contributions you intend to make as early as possible.
 
All other details you will find in the above referenced meeting notice.
 
Kindest Regards,
Paul E. Jones
