Subject: Agenda for TDT Dry Run Meeting
Date: Sun, 13 Sep 1998 22:34:24 -0400 (EDT)

Dear PIs,

Here's our current agenda for this week's meeting. Please let me know
(by 4 p.m. Tuesday):

a. Who will be giving each of your presentations.

b. Whether you are entitled to any additional time
(based on having run key contrast experiments).

When you show up Thursday morning, please bring the 40 copies of each set
of slides that you will be using. (As before, these can be reduced and
printed on both sides, but should be individually collated and stapled.)

NEC and SRI have submitted runs to NIST, but unfortunately cannot attend
the meeting. They may send us descriptions of their approaches.

Charles
