Chinese made product!

OBJECTIVES

   The primary objectives of this meeting are:

    - Hear reports from localization subcommittees and liaisons

    - Review UBL 1.1 requirements and schedule

MEETING SCHEDULE

   This is an unusual plenary in that number of actual UBL members

room assignments may be adjusted during the opening plenary.
