[STDS-802-16] Fwd: IEEE-SA Policy and Procedures (P&P) Changes- January 2011

["Roger B. Marks" <r.b.marks@ieee.org>]

FYI.

In reviewing the file indicating the changes, I found one section that bears on our work. It's 

IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual

6.4. IEEE standard document structure

This introduces a number of statements clarifying issues of normative vs informative content, including details about references, notes, etc. Also, it specifies the meaning of "shall, should, may, and can."
