[STDS-802-11] Appeal related to TGax dominance remedy



--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector --- Dear 802.11 participants,

Please be aware of the "Appeal of Ericsson, Graham Smith, and InterDigital vs IEEE-SA Standards Board (IEEE-SA appeal)

- Concerning the Action taken by the IEEE-SA Standards Board regarding the 802.11ax Dominance Complaint"
(see: http://ieee802.org/lmsc_appeals.shtml).


This is an appeal to the IEEE-SA standards board concerning the remedy applied as a result of the 802.11ax dominance complaint.

I presume that the appeal will be heard by the IEEE-SA standards board.  The next regular meeting of the standards board is in March.


The existence of this appeal does not affect processes in 802.11 in any way unless and until the standards board or 802 EC determine otherwise.
Best Regards,

Adrian Stephens
IEEE 802.11 Working Group Chair

Dear EC Members,
 
I received the attached appeal brief yesterday evening.  It is an appeal to the IEEE Standards Association Standards Board concerning the findings of the 802.11ax dominance investigation and the subsequent 802 EC action we took.  JohnD, please post this to the appeals section of the 802 website.
 
Now it is up to the Standards Board to handle the appeal, no action is needed on our part that I am aware of.  It will be forwarded to the SASB Appeal Officers for review per IEEE SASB Ops Man Section 5.8 Appeals (http://standards.ieee.org/develop/policies/opman/sect5.html#5.8).  I will keep you posted on any developments
 
Regards,
 
--Paul

Dear Paul and all,

 

Jana’s IT folks tell her it is impossible for her to take off the automatic confidentiality signature.

 

I am therefore re-sending the appeal brief, in her stead, without any confidentiality limitations.

 

Thank you for your consideration of this important matter,

 

Dina

Dear Jana,

 

I am unable to accept or consider your notice.

 

The confidentiality notice at the bottom of your email is in violation of the IEEE Standards Association's policy* (see IEEE Operations Manual 4.1.1.5 Confidentiality Statements and Copyright Notices on Communications https://standards.ieee.org/develop/policies/opman/sect4.html).

 

Please resend the brief without the confidentiality notice so that I may accept it and distribute as appropriate.

 

Regards,

 

--Paul
