+++PROPOSED RULE CHANGE LETTER BALLOT
The following rule change was approved for LMSC ballot at the July Plenary
meeting. There has been some confusion on how to conduct this "paper ballot"
since it is being done via the WEB:
1) Please submit your rule change ballot comments to me at jcarlo@ti.com. I
would like to receive these ballot comments by 1November.
2) Buzz, please distribute this rule change ballot to the IEEE 802 reflector
for comments.
3) I will assume that Bill Lidinsky and Paul Nikolich will handle
consolidating the comments and hold an ad-hoc ballot resolution meeting at
the November Plenary meeting. Jim Carlo
