Invitation for November 1996 meeting of WC22/WG21
 
Plum Hall Inc has offered to host the November 1996 meeting of SC22/WG21;
a co-located meeting of X3J16 is planned for the same time and place:
 
   The Royal Waikoloan (+1-800-325-7171. FAX 1-808-921-6849)
   Waikoloa, Hawaii, USA (on the "Big Island" of Hawaii)
   November 10-17, 1996
 
A block of rooms at the Royal Waikoloan has been reserved, at the special
meeting rate of $99.15 USD single or double occupancy.  The hotel is a short
15-minute drive from the international airport in Keahole, Kona (the "Kona
airport").
 
Non-stop flights can be made from San Francisco, Los Angeles, and
Tokyo; otherwise, attendees should fly to Honolulu, Hawaii, and transfer to
an inter-island flight to Kona.  (The airport is situated amid a large lava
field; once forwarned, attendees should not be alarmed by its appearance.)
Car rentals are available at Kona, arranged through the hotel for $25 USD
per day, or through the usual USA car rental companies.  The Big Island is
rural and sparsely settled, so a car rental (or a friend with a car rental)
is advisable but not essential; taxi service is also available at the airport,
with no pre-arrangement needed.
 
Arrangements for light breakfast and coffee breaks have been provided.  Also,
copying service will be available without cost to attendees.  An evening
social event has been scheduled for Thursday evening, without cost to attendees.
 
Please contact the undersigned at Plum Hall if any further information or
organizational formalities are required.
