Re: +++ SEC Rules Change Ballot
Bill, thank you for putting together Draft 5 of the rules changes.
I have one proposed minor change:
Change the line:
Working Group motions and votes in between 802 Plenary meetings are at the
discretion of the Working Group Chair
to
Working Group motions and votes in between Working Group (strikethrough:
802 Plenary) meetings are at the discretion of the Working Group Chair.
I don't think the intent of the sentence was to state that motions and
votes at interim Working Group meetings are at the discretion of the chair.
In addition, for those that believe the proposed changes confer too much
power on the chair, I offer the 802.5 Working Group process for conducting
electronic ballots first developed in July 1998. These rules can be found
at: http://www.8025.org/documents/standalone/00-09r3.pdf. Each working
group is empowered to develop there own rules that help refine their own
electronic balloting process.
Best regards.
