We don't know how specifically these policies are followed in person, but to avoid any problems getting in on Saturday we recommend sticking to them as closely as you can.
this is smaller than a standard briefcase. any presenters who don't
follow talk-us
may be very surprised on saturday morning if this is enforced for conference
attendees.
i strongly recommend checking with the UN on this as it's pretty severe.
as it is, i'm
going to have to make an emergency run to staples tomorrow morning to
see what
they have in stock, and i'll have to buy two if my daughter's backpack
doesn't pass
muster.
