Dear Sir:
We'll be organizing a workshop at GLOBECOM2000 about Service Portability
(the CFP is attached). Our proposal has been recently accepted as full
day workshop. As the topic of this workshop is related to WG6.8
interests, we'd be interested in initiating technical cooperation or
other type of interaction with your committee.
We look forward hearing from you. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely.
FD

Dear all TC-6 delegates,
Otto sent a e-mail to me to ask official invitation by fax. Could you pls inform
me if you intend to come Beijing to attend TC-6 meeting 2000/2. I will send
a formal invitation to you by fax after I get your response.
Best regards,

For all those who may be frustrated by the test on the letters F - here
is an experience made by a 57 -year old guy:
The difference in interacting with women of the age of 8 to 58.
08 - You take her to bed and tell her a story.
18 - You tell her a story and take her to bed.
28 - You don't need to tell her any story to take her to bed.
38 - She tells you a story and takes you to bed.
48 - You tell her a story to avoid going to bed.
58 - You stay in bed all day to avoid her story !!!

Dear colleagues,
here is some really nontechnical stuff - just heard in the
Dutch radio.
It is a characterisation of some European nations (not fully free from
a prejudice but...).
Best regards
Otto
