There were small updates in the proposed TC6 meeting agenda. I forward
the new version.
The meeting will start on Saturday at 9.00 am and it will go on until we
leave to the visit to the IBM labs at 3.30 pm. On Saturday evening we
will have the TC6 dinner.
We reconvene on Sunday at 9.00 am and we will end the meeting in the
middle of the afternoon.
Let me thank Harry Rudin for the organization of the meeting and the
visit to IBM.
See you in Zurich

Dear colleagues,
As you know, our TC6
committee meeting follows the I3e conference (the First IFIP
Conference on e-Commerce, e-Business & e-Government) with its
tutorials on 3 October and papers on 4 and 5 October. The
conference and our committee meeting will be held at the
University of Zurich at Irchel, between
Zurich's airport, Kloten, and downtown Zurich.
Important: Our TC6 meeting will be held in Building 27, Room H25.
Building 27 is at the extreme end of the campus on the hill side.
Please note that the University is closed on Saturday and Sunday
so I will have to let you in. If you come late, our conference
room has a phone: (01) 635 4351. I will borrow a handy phone
as backup, (079) 399 0878. If worst comes to worst, the meeting
room is in the back of Building 27 near the bicycle rack; if you
wave and shout we will probably see and hear you! For detailed
instructions and a map, which I urge you to print, please see
http://www.ifi.unizh.ch/ifiadmin/wayToInst.html
Augusto has sent you the agenda. The TC6 meeting will start
at 9:00 am. on Saturday. That afternoon we will leave the University
around 15.30 to take public transportation to the IBM Zurich
Research Laboratory for a presentation and demonstrations as
described earlier. If you get a 24-hour VBZ transportation ticket
(Please see directions at the URL above) valid to Rueschlikon,
you can also use this for transportation to the
Laboratory and for the trip back to Zurich after our TC6
dinner, also in Rueschlikon.
Finally, for those of you who are in Zurich on Friday evening,
5 October, Edith and I invite TC6 members and their spouses
to our home in Oberrieden for an informal meal. If you would
like to come, please do reply by e-mail. We will then
send you detailed directions. We do look forward to your
coming!
Best regards,
Harry

Hello,
if you are not Veikko Hara then please ignore this message.
Veikko, we should check the problems (if any) with your email address.
We use in the group address for you: <veikko.hara(a)sonera.com>
