Per the LMSC P&P sections 3.1 and 4.0 all 802 executive committee members are elected or appointed and confirmed at the first Plenary session of each even numbered year. Therefore election/appointments are scheduled to occur at the upcoming March 2020 Plenary session.
I will stand for re-election as Chair of 802. If I am re-elected, I plan to fill the 802 Appointed Officer positions as follows: first Vice Chair-James Gilb, second Vice-Chair-Roger Marks, Recording Secretary-John D’Ambrosia, Executive Secretary-Jon Rosdahl and Treasurer-George Zimmerman. I also plan to appoint the following individuals to fill the non-voting positions of 802 Member Emeritus Treasurer Advisor-Clint Chaplin, 802 Member Emeritus-Advisor-Geoff Thompson and Hibernating Working Group Chairs: 802.16 Chair-Roger Marks, 802.21 Subir Das, 802.22 Apurva Mody and 802 Ombudsman-Guido Hiertz. All the appointees have agreed to accept the appointments and wish to be confirmed.
If you, or others in you WGs, wish to be considered for the 802 Chair or the appointed positions, please contact me and the Recording Secretary as soon as possible.
All potential EC members--please remember to submit your letter of endorsement and disclosure of affiliation to John D’Ambrosia as soon as possible, but not later than the March 2020 opening EC meeting.
Finally, please carefully review the Disclosure of Affiliation FAQ (standards.ieee.org/faqs/affiliation.html) and the IEEE Standards Board Bylaws, 5.2.1.5 Disclosure of Affiliation* (standards.ieee.org/about/policies/bylaws/sect5.html) to ensure all candidates for 802 leadership positions fully understand this requirement and are in compliance with the policy.
Regards,
Paul Nikolich
Chair, IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee
* Please ensure all candidates comply with the IEEE SA 5.2.1.5 Disclosure of affiliation policy:
Every participant in a working group, Standards Association ballot, or other standards development activity shall disclose his or her affiliation(s), which includes employer(s) and any other affiliation(s). An individual is deemed "affiliated" with any individual or entity that has been, or will be, financially or materially supporting that individual's participation in a particular IEEE standards activity. This includes, but is not limited to, his or her employer(s) and any individual or entity that has or will have, either directly or indirectly, requested, paid for, or otherwise sponsored his or her participation. Failure to disclose every such affiliation(s) may result in complete or partial loss of rights to participate in IEEE SA activities. An individual is not excused from compliance with this policy by reason of any claim of a conflicting obligation (whether contractual or otherwise) that prohibits disclosure of affiliation(s).
A person who believes that a participant's disclosure is materially incomplete or incorrect should report that fact to the appropriate Standards Committee(s).
