[802SEC] Proposed rule changes for July meeting

["James P. K. Gilb" <gilb@ieee.org>]

All

In the interest of getting the P&P changes onto AudCom's agenda, I would 
like to start discussion of the proposed changes by email so that we can 
have some level of consensus by the Sunday night rules meeting that will 
lead to a successful motion on Monday morning.

Accordingly, I would like to take up discussion of one of the proposed 
changes on this email in search of feedback.

Every 2 years, the Recording secretary asks for letters of endorsement 
from potential EC members.  Currently the rule states "Any person to be 
confirmed by the Sponsor shall ...".  I had produced two suggestions:

 a) "All members of the Sponsor shall ..."
 b) "All voting members of the Sponsor shall ..."

However, I have noticed that this leaves out WG and TAG Vice Chairs, who 
are not members of the Sponsor, but can vote (under the newly modified 
rules) and are confirmed by the sponsor.

It turns out that there is no central place that lists all the persons 
that are to be confirmed by the Sponsor.

So 2 questions:
 1) Should non-voting members of the Sponsor be required to file 
letters of affiliation including the statement regarding how to vote?
 2) Should we add a list of the persons to be confirmed by the Sponsor?
