Re: [RPRWG] 802.17 members only site




Khaled, I am in full agreement with Mike's list.  Whoever comes to any
meeting (during the last 4 plenaries) is entitled to participate in the
process and have access to all the materials, with the exception of voting
(at meetings and on ballots).  This last right is reserved for voting
members.

Best regards,
