Dear
EC,
In
regards to the EC Motion to forward the 802.22a and 802.22b
ISO/IEC/JTC1 FDIS 60 Day Ballot Comment Resolutions, the Working Group
conducted a Letter Ballot to
correct the process missteps (please see my explanation below). Both
the motions passed.
Given
that the process missteps have now been corrected, we would like to
bring this motion back to the EC for approval, either during the October
4th
telecon or via an e-mail ballot once the Chair of the 802 grants us
permission.
The
updated motion package may be found attached to this e-mail.
It
may also be found on Mentor at:

Dear
EC Members
I talked to Paul and some of you over the last few days.
I would like thank everyone for taking the time to review the 802.22
motion at the EC meeting last Friday and to apologize for the process
missteps that made it impossible to approve. Special thanks to Bob and
Subir, as well as Andew Myles and Peter Yee.
Our
plan is to affirm the action via an email ballot of the WG and bring it
back to the EC.
In
the mean while, I am pleased to report that 802.22 is starting to gain
traction in the market place as regulations progress in the US and the
rest
of the world. First 802.22 device is likely to go for FCC certification
in the near future.
Likewise,
work on the 802.22.3 Project is also gaining momentum, with the US
Government (NTIA and NIST) interested in this activity, and also we are
getting some new companies out of South Africa, Canada and Europe being
involved. At this point, I expect we will see growing participation at
2 out 3 Plenary Sessions. This is primarily driven by the number of
meetings participants are able to attend each
year. The third will be smaller, at least for now, but going forward we
will ensure we are at all Plenaries.
Again, thanks for your comments and guidance.
Regards
Apurva
