Re: [802SEC] Endorsement and affiliation letters for James Gilb - correction

[Bruce Kraemer <bkraemer@MARVELL.COM>]

James,
First, I want to assure everybody that this dialog is about a nit; just a case of friendly elbowing.

We have a case of documents in edit and a question of which to use.

The latest versions are the ones I used as reference for my letters (attached). They are not the same as what you refer to.

Also your original note referred to the OM and the note below refers to the P&P.

In the new OM document section 5.1 is about Plenaries while Section 6.1 is about Voting Guidance.
The new P&P has nothing equivalent on this topic that I could find.

Hence, when I tried to find your original reference in the OM it didn't exist.

Thanks for the vote of confidence.  However, for better or worse, I
copied the wording from our latest P&P (at least I think it is the
latest one, it was appoved in early 2009, Mat?)

It says:

Any person to be confirmed by the Sponsor shall, prior to confirmation
by the Sponsor, file with the Recording Secretary a letter of
endorsement from their supporting entity. This letter is to document
several key factors relative to their participation on the Sponsor and
is to be signed by both the Sponsor member and an individual who has
management responsibility for the Sponsor member. This letter shall
contain at least the following:
a) Statement of qualification based on technical expertise to fulfill
the assignment
b) Statement of support for providing necessary resources (e.g., time,
travel expenses to meetings), and
c) Recognition that the individual is expected to act in accordance with
the conditions stated in subclause 5.1 of the IEEE 802 Operations Manual
dealing with voting "as both a professional and as an individual expert."

In our current OM (aproved 11/14/2008, in force since March 2009 when
the P&P was approved and is currently unmodified), the voting guidance
is in section 5.1.

Section 6, which does not have any subsections, is for interpretations.

Or am I way confused?  If so, I will happily change the example
endorsement letter, which can be found at:
