IAB and IESG to meet with IEEE 802 Executive Committee

The IAB and IESG will meet with members of the IEEE 802 Executive Committee in the Bay Area on July 25, 2012. The attendees and agenda will be available here.

The IESG reply is available here. “The IEEE 802/IETF Relationship” is described in RFC 4441.
