Subject: [802SEC] Motion to approve the attached EC position statement
regarding the SC6 review of 8802-1
Dear EC Members,
Per the below email I sent you last Friday
(http://www.ieee802.org/secmail/msg08457.html) , a revised version of
the IEEE 802 position statement on the review of the 8802-1 and related
documents by SC6 is attached for EC approval.
To that end I need two EC members to move and second the below
resolution. Please respond immediately, as I want to kick off this
ballot as early as possible today, Friday 8 September.
Motion: The 802 LMSC EC resolves to adopt the attached position
statement (appropriately edited to remove the "DRAFT" and "Change
History" text)
Moved-tbd
Seconded-tbd
As soon as I get a mover and seconder on record, I will initiate the
email ballot. The ballot will close 17 Sept 2006.
Regards,

Dear EC Members,
In an e-mail sent to this reflector two weeks ago a process was outlined
to develop an IEEE 802 LMSC position on potential revisions to ISO/IEC
TR 8802-1:2001, which documents a cooperation process between IEEE 802
LMSC and ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6/WG1.
Since that time a small group has contributed to a draft position IEEE
802 LMSC statement for submission to Robin Tasker (editor of 8802-1) by
27 Sept 06. Andrew Myles coordinated the activity and developed the
draft position statement in the attached powerpoint document.
Contributions were received from Geoff Thompson, Steve Mills, Pat
Thaler, David Law, Andrew Myles, Gary Robinson, Bob Pritchard and Paul
Nikolich. The draft position does not necessarily represent the views of
all contributors.
The original plan was to have a teleconference next week to discuss the
position statement. However, the lack of response from the EC (and,
presumably, their WG/TAG membership) suggests this is probably not a
useful exercise. The lack of response is not surprising because,
although the the relationship with ISO/IEC is important, it is "esoteric
standards work", orthogonal to the interests of most Working Group
members.
A slightly modified process to approve this document will now be
followed:
a.. The draft position statement is attached to this e-mail for
comments by the 802 EC. Comments should be sent to the 802 EC reflector
and cc'ed to Andrew Myles (andrew.myles@cisco.com). The closing date for
comments is 5pm ET on Thursday, 7 Sept 06.
b.. Andrew Myles will generate an updated version of the draft
position statement based on these comments by 7am ET on Friday, 8 Sept
06.
c.. The 8 Sept 06 version will be sent out for EC approval via an 802
EC e-mail ballot on 8 Sept 06. The ballot will close on 17 Sept 06.
d.. If the EC ballot fails, Andrew Myles will make further changes
early in the week during the IEEE 802.11 WG interim session in Melbourne
and a second 802 EC e-mail ballot will be issued with a closing date of
26 Sept 06.
e.. I want to avoid a second EC e-mail ballot--hence the 1-7 Sept
comment period--please, please, please provide your input prior to 5 pm
ET 7 Sept 06.
f.. Assuming a position statement is approved, it will be sent to
Robin Tasker on 26 Sept 06.
Andrew Myles is available to discuss the draft position statement at any
time after 5am (3pm ET) any day next week on +61 2 84461010 (W) or +61
418 656587 (M).
