Re: [802SEC] Get IEEE 802 program status report; motion proposal
Roger,
If possible, we would like to reserve the information for the SEC only and
not distribute widely to the entire Plenary - especially the financials.
We certainly welcome your support for the upcoming motion.

I salute the Task Force for moving us forward and, particularly, for
their genuine responses to the questions that have been raised. I am
satisfied with the answers at this stage of the process and will
support the motion.
Roger
P.S. Some of the information in the Task Force report was, I believe,
considered sensitive by Jerry. It is now open to the world on the SEC
reflector. Was this intended?
