James, Thank you for the data. The TAG itself, not only the chair, was under the impression that the 30 day rule applied. So it would seem .18, by using a ten day notice, was more
than meeting the requirement. Best regards, Mike -----Original Message----- All The 30 day rule is to ensure openness in the standards development process. It is found in: - IEEE 802 LMSC P&P, clause 6.0 Meetings for the Sponsor - IEEE 802 LMSC WG P&P, clause 10 Meetings for WGs. However, TAGs, which don't do standards development, are specifically excluded from this requirement in the IEEE 802 LMSC P&P, subclause 5.5 Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs), item e), which states: "e) Between plenary and interim meetings, the TAG Chair is empowered to schedule teleconference meetings to allow the TAG to conduct business as required, provided that the date and time of the teleconference and agenda are published
on the TAG website and e-mail reflector at least 5 days before the meeting." This is from our current P&P, as approved by AudCom. This rule has also been in there for quite some time. So, if 802.18 wants to schedule a teleconference, the notice is 5 days after posting to the reflector and the website. I am confused why Mike thought the 30 day rule applied to TAGs. 30 days applies to the Sponsor and WGs, but not TAGs.
