Re: [STDS-802-16] 802.16 Vice Chair



Ken,
 
I would like to thank you for your extensive contribution to the IEEE 802.16 working group as vice-chair for many years.  Whatever your affiliation was (starting with Ensemble in the LMDS world), you always demonstrated a high degree of dedication.
 
I hope we will continue to benefit from your participation and expertise.  See you in San Diego,

Subject: [STDS-802-16] 802.16 Vice Chair

Dear IEEE 802.16 Working Group:

 

I am resigning as Vice Chair of the IEEE 802.16 Working Group, effective at the end of the 802 Plenary on Friday 21 July 2006.

 

I am resigning due to the fact that the Working Group Chair and I are currently both employed by NextWave Broadband. In principle, we all participate in IEEE as individuals, and I hope that nothing in my three years as Vice Chair would give members any cause for concern.  On the other hand, we all work for companies or organizations, and having both the Chair and Vice Chair employed by the same company might be perceived as inappropriate. In order to avoid creating the perception that NextWave is playing too strong of a role in the Working Group, I believe it would be best for me to step down.

 

I have been honored to serve as Vice Chair. I will continue to support the activities of 802.16 and will support the Working Group's choice of a new Vice Chair.

 

Best Regards,

 

Ken Stanwood
