Re: [802SEC] +++EC email ballot+++ motion to delay release of 802.18 communication+++ends 3 OCT 2005+++final tally
Dear EC members,
Given the failure of the motion, I occurs to me that I must clarify what
state the 802.18 TAG communication is in; it is pending final approval by
the TAG and the EC.
My rationale is as follows. The motion to delay the release until the I
made a ruling failed. However there was ambiguoity in my mind as to whether
or not adequate TAG approval had been reached in the first place. Therefore
I requested the chair of the 802.18 TAG conduct an email ballot to resolve
the ambiguoity as to whether or not adequate approval from the TAG was
obtained for the communcation. That ballot closed Tuesday 4OCT. The TAG
email ballot must receive 75% approval of all TAG members in order to be
presented to the EC for review. If the TAG email ballot passed and after
Mike Lynch notifies the EC of the result it may proceed as per the P&P (i.e.
within 5 days of notice, or after a EC motion to block fails--see P&P
below).
Regards,

The 802 P&P regarding TAG communcations with governement bodies states:
"Working Group or TAG Communications
Working Group or TAG communications with government bodies shall not be
released without prior approval by a 75% majority of the Working Group or
TAG. Such communications may proceed unless blocked by an EC vote. For
position statements not presented for review in an EC meeting, EC members
shall have a review period of at least five days; if, during that time, a
motion to block it is made, release of the position statement will be
withheld until the motion fails. "
Upon my request the

Dear EC members,
The final tally on the below motion is 6APP/4DIS/0ABS/6DNV. Since the
motion did not receive a majority of the EC voting members (9) the motion
fails.
Note that Mike Lynch has conducted an email ballot of the TAG on this matter
and will be publishing the result shortly to the EC reflector. Mike, when
you publish the result, please note that a majority of TAG members must vote
in the affirmative in order for the motion to pass.
Regards,

communication+++ends 3 OCT 2005
Dear EC Memebers,
The below EC motion has been made, recognized and seconded, hence I am
conducting this EC email ballot.
Therefore, I move to delay release of the communication until Paul Nikolich
has ruled on whether the requirements of 14.2 for a TAG vote have been met.
Moved: Pat Thaler
Second: Bob Grow
The ballot closes the sooner of 3 OCT 2005 or 24 hours after all EC members
cast a ballot.
Mike Lynch--in parallel with this email ballot, I strongly encourage you to
immediately conduct an email ballot of the 802.18 TAG members to remove all
doubt as to whether or not the communication has received proper
consideration by the TAG and provide timely updates to the EC such that the
EC can observe the progress of the email ballot.
Regards,
--Paul Nikolich
