Hi, All,
There will be live streaming video of the final session
of the IAU General Assembly XXXVI, that is, the vote
on the planetary definition question, at this website:
http://www.astronomy2006.com/media-stream-live.php
at 2 PM local time (2:00 PM in Prague, or 14:00 hours CEST,
Central European Summer Time, or GMT + 2 hours) which is:
9:00 AM EST or 8:00 AM EDT,
8:00 AM CST or 7:00 AM CDT,
7:00 AM MST or 6:00 AM MDT,
6:00 AM PST or 5:00 AM PDT
(One hour earlier for Alaska,

The content of the Final Resolution is unknown.
http://www.iau2006.org/mirror/www.iau.org/NEWS.55.0.html
says:
We will tomorrow morning at roughly 8:30 CEST
issue a press release. It will contain the Final Resolution
on the planet definition put up for voting, the details of the
voting procedure and an approximate timeline. (That's in
less than three hours from now.)
The vote is a straight yes or no. If the vote is no,
there is no definition.
