Dear all, I would like to declare the candidacy for vice chair
election for coming July meeting. I hope that I can have a chance to serve for the WG. See you all in the Best Regards and thanks Panyuh Joo Global Standards & Research Telecommunication Network SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD TEL: 82-31-279-5096 FAX: 82-31-279-5130 panyuh@samsung.com -----Original Message----- IEEE 802.16 Vice Chair Ken Stanwood has resigned his
position, effective at the end of Session #44. Therefore, at
Session #44, the IEEE 802.16 Working Group will hold a special election
to fill the Vice Chair position through the remainder of the
unexpired term (through the end of the March 2008 Plenary). This election will be on the agenda for Session #44
Opening Plenary on the afternoon of Monday 17 July 2006, starting at 1
pm. The process will be as described in the "IEEE 802.16
Working Group Officer Election Process": http://ieee802.org/16/docs/03/80216-03_28.pdf Note that "Should no candidate receive a majority
in either election, a runoff election shall be held at the Working Group
Closing Plenary meeting." The Closing Plenary meeting is
scheduled for Thursday 20 July, beginning at 7 pm. As stated in the procedures, "Candidates are
encouraged to declare their candidacy, in a Working Group meeting or via the
Working Group email reflector, as soon as possible before the
election. The names of those eligible who declare their candidacy at least
eight days before the scheduled election shall be included on the
paper ballot." Given the short notice, I will extend that deadline
until July 12 AOE <http://tinyurl.com/n6cr5>. If you would like to
be a candidate, please let the reflector know by then. I'll be happy
to discuss the position with you if you like. Regards, Roger Roger B. Marks <mailto:r.b.marks@ieee.org> Chair, IEEE 802.16 WG on Broadband Wireless Access
