7. 802.18 could have some other times as adhoc sessions - non required slot times.6. After a bit of debate, the EC determined that there were two fixed times Monday PM1 (13:30-15:30) and Thursday AM1 (8:00-10:00).5. Pat told the group along with Mike and John N that it was to be Monday PM1 not Tues AM2.4. I presented the plan for 802.18 to have set times for Tues AM2 and Thursday AM1 as you had reported in 802.11 CAC and Closing plenary.3. The Agenda changed and you (nor Peter E) were present.2. The agenda for the Friday EC Workshop originally was set to allow you (and Peter E) to be present for the discussion on 802.18.1. The confusion for the times for 802.18 is unfortunate.HI Rich,Just to recap our phone call for all.Thaler presents ec-16-0008-00 - Mission statement
2016-01-5: D'Ambrosia will create a schedule for a plenary week that shows EC meetings, standing committees slot and 802.18 slot8. Mike has sent a couple of mixed messages to Darcel and I about the times, John N has indicated a different time for Thursday9. You explained that the rationale for the 802.18 Tuesday AM2(10:30-12:30) time was to allow all the WG to have their opening plenaries on Monday, and the 802.11/.15 Reg SC could meet on Monday afternoon, and then 802.18 would be able to have a meeting where all the information could have been gathered, and work assignments made. Then come back on Thursday Morning AM1 (8-10am) to allow 802.18 to complete their work prior to the WG closing plenaries.10. I am trying to just hold the line on what I believed was agreed to in January.Post our Telephone call:
1. In Checking the minutes from the adhoc minutes posted by Pat EC-16/0009r1: (https://mentor.ieee.org/802-ec/dcn/16/ec-16-0009-01-00EC-drat-minutes-21jan2016-ad-hoc-on-radio-regulatory-organization.docx):2) Review organizational options
a. Technical Advisory Group (TAG) vs Standing Committee (SC)?
i. TAG is structurally OK, but needs the following changes to become more flexible
1. Schedule two meetings per session at regular times (i.e., 8-10am Tuesday and 8-10am Thursday) during plenary weeks
a. These two meetings are the ones counted toward attendance credit for voting membership
2. TAG representatives to work with WG representatives between above two meetings to refine draft positions
3. Reminder: WGs retain the ability to develop positions independent of the TAG
ii. SC removes the ‘voting member’ barrier to active participation
iii. Staw poll: TAG with the changes above 7 (Roger, Dorothy, Rich, MikeL, Bob, Steve, Ben); SC 2 (Adrian, Paul); abs (MikeM, Walter)
b. Mike agrees to run the 802.18 TAG in March in accordance with these changes.
Given this Factual rather than memory basis for our arguments heretofore,
I would ask Paul to make a formal chair ruling that we move the Monday PM1(13:30-15:30) to Tuesday AM2 (10:30-12:30)I would ask the group to allow the change, - I will work with Darcel, Mike and John N to make that change.I will work with Darcel, Peter E, Rich K, Bob H. and Adrian, to move the 802.11/.15 Regulatory SC mtg currently slated for Tuesday AM2 (10:30-112:30) to Monday PM1 (13:30-15:30)
.I will work with John D'Ambrosia to update his chart as well.This has been a lot of struggle to get this according to the minutes,I apologize for not insisting we look more closely at the minutes during the EC Workshop rather than all of us going off our memories.Regards,Jon RosdahlIEEE 802 EC Secretary

I appreciate your efforts here. Here is the way I planned to run the new RR-TAG:
802.18 Chair collects regulatory information with implications for 802 WGs and discusses on weekly teleconferences
|
One week prior to the session, the information is sent to all of the affected WGs
|
Information is reviewed during the Wireless Chairs meeting Sunday
|
802.18 representatives attend WG Opening Plenaries, 802.18, asks for the need for special attention and/or responses on any of these or other issues
|
Tuesday, AM2, 802.18 meets to discuss the work for the week, and assigns work to small groups for responses
|
During the week, informal meetings will be used as required to finalize responses
|
Thursday AM1, 802.18 does final editing and votes to approve
|
WGs can approve during Closing Plenaries
|
Forward to EC for approvals
The RR-TAG has so little time to develop these regulatory responses, that efficiency is critical, and the reason I specified it this way. I also intended to hold weekly teleconferences, as regulator’s actions are asynchronous with our face-to-face meetings.Please feel free to share this.

The DOD statement is 'everything is done the day before it's due', the 802.18 is 'everything is done at the last possible minute before adjourning', mostly driven by WG input cleanup and final editing. You can say this should all happen in ad hocs or other meetings before getting to 802.18, but in my nearly 14 years in 802.18 (I was there at the first official meeting), that has never actually happened.We need time to vote out docs as completed, when we have multiple docs, which always seem to need last minute language tweaks on final review, that also drives the need for a two slot closing plenary.JohnJohn NotorU.S. Mobile: 1.408.316.8312
