Re: [802SEC] Attendance Credit At LMSC WG Meetings
John,
In 802.16, the current sign-in process requires people to state "I am
attending an 802.16 session during 'substantially all' of the current
interval." [An interval is typically a morning, an afternoon, or an
evening.]
I know that doesn't address your immediate problem.
If I am confident that someone was mainly absent, I will notify the
person that credit is being revoked and provide a reason. Its
appropriate to explain the rationale.
It is difficult to prevent this behavior in general without an
onerous attendance process, especially in a large group. One thing
that helps, especially at Plenaries, is to cross-check with other
Working Groups to make sure that someone doesn't get credit in more
than one WG in the same session (except when that is possible due to
limited schedules).
