Re: [802SEC] Letter of support from IEEE 802 for IEEE 802.3 nominations to NFPA 70

As far as I know, individuals are not submitting letters on this. They have submitted applications and the nfpa application itself takes care of both the individuals qualifications and indicating the organization being represented. We (802.3) approved and David provided letters from 802.3 indicating each applicant. This is about the organization making its views known on the situation with ieee reps.

George-
Not quite my question.

My question was (for example):
Should Joel submit a letter of support for "802 as an organization"
as:
   (1) Joel Goergen, individual subject matter expert 
or
   (2) Joel Goergon on behalf of and representing Cisco
??
