30、are defined by the ETSI Secretariat in agreement with the TB Chairman. 8 Meetings 8.1 Frequency The TISPAN Plenary shall meet at least 3 times a year.

31、r period is 1 week before and 1 week after a full plenary meeting. During this buffer period it will not be permitted to hold interim Plenary or WG meetings.

32、 is expected that the systems group will meet at least once in between plenary sessions. 8.2 Location, hosting and costs TISPAN meetings can be held at any location that is convenient and economical. Any TISPAN member may host a meeting at a suitable location. Whenever meetings are held in public lo

The charge per individual shall be the same regardless of whether the individual stays in the hotel or conference centre or elsewhere. The host of the meeting may provide communi
34、cations facilities such as wireless internet access, telephone or fax. The provision of such facilities is highly appreciated by the delegates.

The revised agenda with document numbers allocated for agreement shall be made available at the start o

41、at shall be used to efficiently utilize network resources and to reduce download times. However, only one contribution per zip file is allowed. Separate contributions shall have separate document numbers and file names to avoid confusion. NOTE: A contribution can contain several files zipped into on

The responsibility of maintaining the contents of the applicable directories on the ETSI Portal lies with the technical officer or with the chairman of the applicable meeting. 8.6.2 Numbering and submission of contributions 8.6.2.1 Use of ADN Th
43、e Automatic Document Numbering (ADN) web-based ETSI application shall be used when submitting contributions to TISPAN meetings. For every TISPAN meeting a document set will be created by the TISPAN support team. The ADN document tool will be available from the closing date of the previous meeting to
44、 two weeks after the date of the meeting concerned. This allows submission of contributions during and after the meetings. Document numbers can be allocated manually by the TISPAN support team after this date. The hyperlink of the ADN document set of the meeting concerned is available on the ETSI po
45、rtal and also from the meeting invitation document. 8.6.2.2 Document naming The normal rules for document numbering can be found in clause 1.5.3 of the Technical Working Procedures 1. 8.6.2.3 Revising documents Contributions may be revised during the course of a meeting.
