Re: [802SEC] 802 O&A balloting proposal

James,

One concern with the proposal is that the group of voters added to the 802.1 WG so that they would be in the P802REVc pool, will be voters until they age out.   You confirmed that the WG chair can add voters but not remove them.   During this time they will also become voters in other WG ballots that are started.  And will result in quorum issues (if the group is large).

Is there anyway to mitigate this without a rule change?

Cheers,
Glenn.

All

Based on the rules I have found, it is theoretically possible for IEEE
802.1 to form a subgroup as a comment resolution group and "allow participation of persons who are not Working Group Members and specify the terms and conditions under which they participate in the subgroup."

Note that the 802.1 WG could delegate responsibility for resolution to the subgroup.  ("Any resolution of a subgroup shall be subject to confirmation by the Working Group, unless previously or otherwise delegated to the subgroup.").

IMHO.

5. Subgroups of the Working Group

The Working Group may form subgroups for the conduct of its business. 
Membership in the subgroup is granted to any Member of the Working Group. Such formation shall be explicitly noted in the meeting minutes. 
At the time of formation, the Working Group shall determine the scope and duties delegated to the subgroup, may decide to allow participation of persons who are not Working Group Members and specify the terms and conditions under which they participate in the subgroup. Such formation shall be explicitly noted in the meeting minutes. Any changes to the scope and duties of the subgroup will require the approval of the Working Group. Any resolution of a subgroup shall be subject to confirmation by the Working Group, unless previously or otherwise delegated to the subgroup.

The Chair of the Working Group shall appoint, and may dismiss, the Chair of the subgroup.
