HI Steve,

I have no problems holding a June meeting in Berkeley.  It is a less =
expensive trip (for me)
and Damian and Kate (especially Kate) have a good track record of =
running meetings.=20

One question: Would it be possible to have the whole week be a WG5 =
meeting, as I had thought the one planned for Helsinki would  have been? =
Or would that run afoul of an ISO sides-of-the-pond balance rule?   If =
so, is it too late to see if a meeting could be scheduled for London or =
Delft (as past ones have been).

Cheers,
Bill
