> Submitting Requests for Working Group and BOF Sessions
>
> Please submit requests to schedule your Working Group sessions using the "IETF Meeting Session Request Tool," a Web-based tool for
submitting all of the information that the Secretariat requires to schedule your sessions.

> The URL for the tool is:

> https://datatracker.ietf.org/cgi-bin/wg/wg_session_requester.cgi
>
> Instructions for using the tool are available at:
>
> http://www.ietf.org/instructions/session_request_tool_instruction.html
>
> Please send requests to schedule your BOF sessions to [e-mail].  Please include the acronym of your BOF in the subject line
of the message, and include all of the information specified in item (4) of "Requesting Meeting Sessions at IETF Meetings" in the
body.  (This document is included below.)
>
> Submitting Session Agendas
>
> For the convenience of meeting attendees, we ask that you submit the agendas for your Working Group sessions as early as possible.
Draft Working Group agendas are due Wednesday, November 2, 2011 by 17:00 PT.  Revised Working Group agendas are due no later than
Monday, November 7, 2011 at 17:00 PT.  The proposed agenda for a BOF session should be submitted along with your request for a
session.  Please be sure to copy your Area Director on that message.
>
> Please submit the agendas for your Working Group sessions using the "IETF Meeting Materials Management Tool," a Web-based tool for
making your meeting agenda, minutes, and presentation slides available to the community before, during, and after an IETF meeting.
If you are a BOF chair, then you may use the tool to submit a revised agenda as well as other materials for your BOF once the BOF
has been approved.

> Additional information about this tool is available at:

> Agendas submitted via the tool will be available to the public on the "IETF Meeting Materials" Web page as soon as they are
submitted.

> If you are a Working Group chair, then you already have accounts on the "IETF Meeting Session Request Tool" and the "IETF Meeting
Materials Management Tool."  The same User ID and password will work for both tools.  If you are a BOF chair who is not also a
Working Group chair, then you will be given an account on the "IETF Meeting Materials Management Tool" when your BOF has been
approved.  If you require assistance in using either tool, or wish to report a bug, then please send a message to:
