Re: Invitation to Co-Sign Letter to IEEE Election Candidatesregarding ISTO
Roger-
I think some of your text needs a little tweaking, to wit:
==============
According to the IEEE Policy and Procedures Manual (8.1.1), the IEEE shall
"Develop draft standards and standards-related documents within the IEEE
Societies and Technical Councils and the Standards Committees of the
IEEE-SA Standards Board. Because of the importance of such documents in
trade and commerce, these activities shall be conducted in accordance with
rules and procedures of the IEEE Standards Association as published in its
bylaws and operations manuals and the bylaws and operations manuals of its
subsidiary boards and committees." By operating outside of the processes
established by IEEE and the IEEE Standards Association, does ISTO violate
this Procedure?
=============
needs a clarifying change.
I would change the question to:
By operating outside of the processes established by IEEE and the IEEE
Standards Association
for specifications which it associates with the term "standard",
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^-inserted text-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
does ISTO violate this Procedure?
With this change, I will be delighted to sign your letter and add
supporting comments.
