Re: [RPRWG] 802.17 members only site




Mike,

Not sure I understand why people in item#2 should have access.
> 2) People who attend meetings and are not yet members

That's not the way it's done in other IEEE 802 working groups.
If you're a voting member you get access, otherwise you can't.
Is there a reason for us to be different?

Just wanted to add my 2-cents here.
Thanks.
