Re: [STDS-802-11-CAC] Possible rules changes for WG11

--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Chairs' Advisory Committee Reflector ---

Adrian/CAC,

 

My comments are in the context of how this would actually work in practice.

 

I can’t imagine that there is any practical way that all the chairs will have ‘real’ agendas 30 days ahead of the meeting, when we can barely have a good guess a few days before and a truly useful agenda the night before, currently. 

 

So, following option 2, I would imagine an approximate, but pretty generic (much like what we send to Bruce currently), agenda would get posted 30 days ahead.  Bruce’s agenda could point to these, preferably without revision number (is that okay)?  Then, the chair can continue to refine and update the document using revisions, like we do now with our individual agendas.  Bottom line, really no difference from exactly what we do currently, except that Bruce’s agenda would have pointers to our actual, operating agendas, which would be nice I suppose.

--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Chairs' Advisory Committee Reflector ---

As discussed by the CAC tonight,  two possible 802.11 OM additions:

 

Related to agendas:

1.1.1     Agendas

 

There are two types of agenda:  Working Group and Sub Group (SubG) (i.e., TG, SG, SC).

 

For a SubG meeting during a WG session, there are two options:

  1. Maintain a separate document, which should be shown as an “Agenda” on the bottom left of the printed page.  This is a submission on the document server using document, presentation or spreadsheet formats and using appropriate 802.11 submission templates for this purpose.
  2. Include the agenda as a Tab in the WG agenda document by emailing it to the WG chair.

 

The WG agenda is a spreadsheet that includes the following:

  1. A graphic showing overall use of time during the session.
  2. One or more tabs for the WG plenary meetings.
  3. A list of a document references for agendas posted on the document server corresponding to SubG option 1 above.
  4. One or more tabs supplied by SubGs containing their agendas corresponding to SubG option 2 above.

 

Note that there are timing requirements on the posting of agendas prior to meetings that are specified elsewhere in this document. The choice of format by the TG does not affect these requirements.

 

 

 

Related to special interest groups:

  1. A special interest group is a standing committee of the 802.11 working group that is formed to progress a specific topic.
  2. This group might be used prior to a formal study group to raise awareness and understanding of a potential study group.
  1. The group follows all the rules for a WG11 standing committee.
  1. The group is formed by WG motion and dissolved as determined by the WG chair.

1.       The group is formed after discussion during a WG plenary during which the goals of the SIG are identified,  and a motion to form the SIG achieves a simple majority.

2.       Typically the group will exist for no more than 6 months.

 

 

 

Please let me have your comments by Tuesday morning.

 

Best Regards,

 

Adrian P STEPHENS
