We are pleased to invite experts of Q.11, Q.12, Q.13, Q.14, and Q.15 to the joint rapporteurs' meeting to be held 18 - 22 October, 1999, in Red Bank, New Jersey. Please find attached information regarding the meeting location, meeting logistics, and lodging. Please also note that a block of rooms will be held by the hotel until 22 September, so delegates are encouraged to make arrangements very soon.

The hotel had booked another function for Friday night before we made arrangements, so we will need to vacate the meeting rooms by 3:30 on Friday. We know this will disappoint many of us who have become accustomed to running until 7:00 or 8:00 in the evening on the last day. Because of this other function, the hotel is only able to hold a block of 70 rooms for Friday night. We hope this will not be a problem, as the early finish time should allow many delegates to catch a flight on Friday evening.

Best Regards, Radhika Roy - AT&T Glen Freundlich - Lucent Technologies
