Dear Colleagues, I took the action item in July to continue the disbanding 802.18 TAG discussion on the reflector. Having had time to think about this and discuss it with some of you, I’d like to propose disbanding 802.18 and forming a Regulatory Standing Committee. This would provide a forum for cross Working Group discussions of regulatory matters
to coordinate Working Group interaction with regulatory organizations. It would be consistent with the way we handle other external relationships (e.g. standing committees for IETF and ISO). Establishing a regular schedule for the Standing Committee (SC) during plenaries provides a structure for interaction with WGs. As an EC SC, the meetings would be open to all participants. Monday: The Regulatory SC Chair would prepare a list of items to address for an opening report on Monday and be available to attend opening plenaries of WGs to raise any issues. Tuesday: The Standing Committee would meet in the AM1 slot to discuss any issues and plan for the week. AM2 and PM1 could be used if further time is needed to focus on specific topics. Wednesday: No formal meetings – time to work on drafting documents based on the input from the Tuesday meeting(s) Thursday morning: Meet in AM1 to complete editing. Thursday PM and Friday AM: Regulatory SC Chair attends WG closing sessions to report on activity during the week and make motions on outgoing documents Friday PM: Regulatory SC Chair reports at the closing EC meeting and EC votes on outgoing IEEE 802 regulatory communications.
