RE: [802SEC] help with front matter
Roger:
My recollection is:
1. The first page of published front matter remains. ("IEEE Standards documents are developed ...")
2. The IEEE 802 figure is gone as is the list of 802 standards.
3. As to other material, my quite recent Coordination comment quotes the IEEE Style Manual section 9.3. I assume this allows WG specific material, but based on the motivation for the change, staff was concerned with the introduction always being out of date. anything a WG stick in should remember to keep it generic and not prone to quick obsolescence.

Roger,
It is my understanding that as of the end of the July plenary session, the
current "Introduction" is removed from the front matter. I can't remember
if we agreed that the WG chair has discretion to any additional front-matter
material--I thought we did.
