The "Telecom & NFV Operations" track was one of the first to be
finalized, but it was done while we were tracking a bug in building the
list. Until March 8, the "final team list" was listed under Beth Cohen's
personal selections. I swapped the lists on March 8 so that everything
was listed in the correct spot. Additionally, per the Track Chairs for
this same track, two presentations were merged. <br>
<br>
Email from Track Chair Beth Cohen detailing this:<br>
<p style="color: rgb(43, 46, 47); font-family: 'Lucida Sans
Unicode','Lucida Grande','Tahoma',Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;
line-height: 22px; margin: 15px 0pt 15px 40px;" dir="auto">Folks -</p>
<p style="color: rgb(43, 46, 47); font-family: 'Lucida Sans
Unicode','Lucida Grande','Tahoma',Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;
line-height: 22px; margin: 15px 0pt 15px 40px;" dir="auto">The Telecom
Track Chair team got together and chose our selections. <br>Unfortunately
there is something wrong with the list as you can see from <br>the
attached snapshot. The correct list is all the ones that are marked <br>as
Yes by Beth Cohen and have a comment that the team selected it. We <br>would
also like to rank them to show the correct alternatives.</p>

line-height: 22px; margin: 15px 0pt 15px 40px;" dir="auto">Thank you in
advance for looking into this.</p>
<br>
<br>
Was there some other issue you heard of?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Jimmy<br>
