[802SEC] +++PASSED: CD-ROM for 2002




Ballot Passed below. Paul was going to discuss position by IEEE-Staff
relayed by Jerry Walker to ONLY authorize those standards on the Get802
program for the CD Rom.

Tally: Approve:7       Do not Approve:1      Abstain:   Did Not Vote:4

Jim Carlo - Chair

I vote Disapprove.
I don't think we need this. The six-month delay in the GetIEEE
program is not enough to justify the CD. By the time we come out with
a CD in November, everything approved at the previous December and
February Standards Board meetings will already be six months old and
therefore already on the web. The stuff approved in June will
probably be on the web soon. And the stuff approved in September will
probably be too new to get on the CD anyway.

Also, the absence of a 2002 CD doesn't mean that people will need to
do a massive download. After all, they already have a 2001 CD (and,
last I checked, we still had a supply of extras). So, if people have
to download the few additional files they need, they won't suffer too
badly. We could even put them on the network server that we have
decided to support at the November meeting. This would be simple, and
it would avoid the first-mile access bottleneck that will exist until
802.16 MANs are widely available.

So, while I think it's fine to update the CD occasionally, I don't
think we need to do it annually.

Conversely, the cost is too high in terms of:

*production dollars
*volunteer production labor
*distribution labor cost and associated Wednesday turmoil
*getting bugged to submit a voter list

Roger

I vote APPROVE on this motion.
I further believe we should make a serious effort to adjust the rules for
CD-ROM distribution
so that we provide it for ALL registered attendees, thereby allowing it to
be handed out with
the name badge as part of normal registration.  This would eliminate the
need for doing
voting member updates on-site and delaying the distribution until Wednesday
afternoon.
Since we now have Get802 firmly in place the potential revenue impact of
this change
would be very minor and it would streamline the process to everyone's
advantage.
The CD-ROM then becomes a real incentive to getting registered early.
Thanx,  Buzz

SEC OFFICIAL EMAIL BALLOT 802.0/4Aug2001
Issue Date: 24Aug2001 Closing Date: 4Sept2001
Moved By: Geoff Thompson     Seconded By: Buzz Rigsbee
Move: CD Rom for 2002
Motion: Update IEEE 802 Standards CDROM for distribution at the November,
2001 meeting. Authorize funds to make 1000 copies (approximately $3000).

Notes:

1) Motion made in 1999:
Update IEEE 802 Standards CDROM for distribution at the November, 1999
meeting. Authorize funds to make 500 copies (approximately $1500).

2) IEEE Operating Rules
LMSC OPERATING RULES REVISED MARCH 15, 2001 PAGE 24 OF 31
IEEE 802 -- 2001/01 FILE: LMRULE0301.DOC Procedure 6
POLICY FOR DISTRIBUTION OF NEW IEEE LMSC STANDARDS
PUBLICATIONS
1. Books will be distributed to those participants of the Working Group and
major contributors
listed in front matter of the standard who directly contributed to that
standard or supplement.
The LMSC Chair will establish the book distribution policy. The Executive
Secretary in
conjunction with the Working Group chair will implement the policy including
generating
information to provide to the IEEE Office for any distribution by IEEE
Standards.
2. CD-ROMs, containing all IEEE 802 standards available at that point in
time, available
normally at the July Plenary on an annual basis, will be distributed to
registered attendees who
are Working Group voting members or SEC members at the issuing meeting, and
at
subsequent plenary meetings for those not attending the issuing meeting
until a new CD-ROM
is available. Handout will occur on Wednesday (8AM-5PM).
The CD-ROM program will be reviewed annually by the IEEE 802 Chair and the
IEEE Standards Department to ensure its appropriateness and to make any
adjustments in the product development process and business arrangements
that might be necessary.
