Bob,
Sounds good to
me.
Mat,
Can you initiate a
rules change to do this based on the Motion. In
essence we are looking for section two to reflect this. The text should be
amended to read as
Each Working
Group, Technical Advisory Group, and Executive Committee Study Group Chair
shall provide a status report to the Executive Committee Recording Secretary
no later than 3 days
after the end of closing Executive Committee meeting. This status report shall
include a description of the progress made during the week, as well as plans
for further work and future meetings. The Recording Secretary shall post these
status reports on the 802 web page no later than one week after the close of
the Plenary meeting.
Bob, I assume that
you can live with the "one week" for posting it even if you do not get it
until 3 days after the close. Or do we need to change that
number?
Mark

I
certainly like this one better than the last. But, it will still require
a rules change ballot and all that entails to officially change the
P&P. I'm willing to look the other way on the one hour part of the
current rule, until the rule change is completed.

Bob
I am
willing to go with that. I think this will also work for Bob
Grow
Here is
the next attempt:
Whereas the
IEEE 802 News Bulletin has become a standing means by which the IEEE 802 WGs
and TAGs disseminate timely information, it is resolved
that:
1.
The requirement
for the WG Chair to deliver a
"Plenary Closing Status Report" to the EC secretary within an hour of the
close of the WG meeting be relaxed to
three days and that this
input also be made available to the the 802 News Bulletin coordinator to allow
posting of a final version of the News Bulleting one week after the closing of
each 802 plenary.
2.
The WG chair
may delegate this responsibility to a WG member.
Bob O'Hara, if you agree to this
in principle can you give me some advice on how to make this "consistent" with
the P&P or do we need to propose a change to the
P&P.
Please let me have your comments and I
will see if we are close to consensus.

I
vehemently object to eliminating the closing reports from the chairs. I
would support relaxing the requirement as to when that report is required to
be provided to the secretary to the three days stated in the motion. I
believe that everything that is required to develop the PR material can be
extracted from the closing reports.
I
will also ask the chair to rule this motion out of order, as it is attempting
to make a change to the P&P by a simple motion.

Subject: [802SEC] Motion on 802 News
Bulletin
EC
Members,
The following constitutes a
revision of the Motion dealing with the support of the IEEE 802 News
Bulletin.
Attached is the reply I received
form Karen McCabe on the feasibility of working without a pre-plenary draft of
the News Bulletin. She indicates that IEEE staff is willing to work without
the pre-meeting input.
Bob Grow indicated that he may be
willing to support a motion on providing input to the news within 3 days in
lieu of the status report due within one hour of the closing of a plenary
session.
Based on that I would like your
comments on the following proposed motion for the closing EC meeting. I will
only present if we get a chance of passing the motion otherwise we will take
it up next time.
Whereas the
IEEE 802 News Bulletin has become the standing means by which the IEEE 802 WGs
and TAGs disseminate timely information, it is resolved
that:
1.
The requirement
for the WG Chair to deliver a
"Plenary Closing Status Report" to the EC secretary within an hour of the
close of the WG meeting be replaced with the following
responsibilities:
1.
The WG chair is responsible for
assuring that timely input is provided to the 802 News Bulletin coordinator to
facilitate posting of a final version of the News Bulleting one week after the
closing of each 802 plenary. To
this end a summary of the WG
accomplishments shall be provided
within three days of the close of the
Plenary session.
2.
The WG chair
may delegate this responsibility to a WG member.
Please let me have your comments
and I will see if we are close to consensus.
Mark
