This may be of interest to people on this list ... the TPRC comes just a
week
or so before the AoIR conference.


The 2005 Telecommunications Policy Research Conference will be held from
Friday, September 23 through Sunday, September 25, 2005 at the George Mason
University Law School in Arlington, Virginia. Information on the procedure

invites suggestions on special panels and tutorials.
