[STDS-802-16] Comment Resolution Procedure for IEEE P802.16-REVd recirc



Dear IEEE 802.16 Working Group Members,

At Session #30, the IEEE 802.16 Chair and Vice Chair were tasked to
complete the details of a framework process for resolving comments,
without a face-to-face meeting, in the Sponsor Ballot Recirculation
of IEEE P802.16-REVd/D4.

Ken and I have developed a complete procedure based on electronic
dialog centered on our "Commentary" database software. We think this
can work very well. The full documentation, including a detailed
schedule, is in:

"Comment Resolution Procedure for Sponsor Ballot Recirculation of
IEEE P802.16-REVd"
IEEE 802.16-04/18 <http://ieee802.org/16/docs/04/80216-04_18.pdf>.

According to the procedure, the comments will be resolved by a Ballot
Resolution Committee (BRC) composed of the all the current members of
the IEEE 802.16 WG. This procedure will require time and attention of
the members, with, in some cases, relatively short turnaround times.
I suggest that you study the procedure carefully and try to keep free
time on your calendars, particularly in the period 16 April - 8 May
(and beforehand for those submitting comments). Depending on the
level of comment during recirc, this procedure may place significant
demands on the time and attention of the WG members.

Regards,

Roger

P.S. I have been promised that the IEEE-SA Balloting Center will open
the recirc by tomorrow. The procedure assumes they will.
