Re: [802SEC] +++EC 5 Day Review+++ Letter to Chair of IEC TC 76

["Roger B. Marks" <r.b.marks@IEEE.ORG>]

Mike,

I don't have any issues in principle. However:

(1) I'm concerned that the letter is being circulated (including the  
forward-looking statement that it was "reviewed by the IEEE 802  
Executive Committee") without being labeled as a draft.

(2) The letter says that "The IEEE 802.15 Study Group (SG) on Visible  
Light Communication (VLC) is developing standards for free space  
communication." This is a problem because a SG is not authorized to  
develop standards.
