RE: [802.21] Question about roll call
Youn-Hee Han,
As Ajay is probably in transit, I'll attempt to reassure you.
That's certainly not the way quorum calls normally work. A quorum should just be a determination of whether at any point there are enough voters present to make the votes valid at that point. There's nothing stopping an additional voter turning up later (assuming the quorum passed) and taking part in the votes - the whole idea is to increase the number of voters, not reduce it.
Of course, things could be different in 802.21, but if anyone tries to stop you voting, I'd take it up with someone at 802 level.
In itself it's pretty unusual to schedule a quorum call at the beginning of the meeting. 802.11 doesn't do this for properly scheduled interim meetings because the consequences of the call failing are so huge - the assumption is that the quorum rules don't really work very well for properly scheduled interim meetings, so calling for one is pretty much a mechanism of derailing the meeting.
Mike.

Subject: [802.21] Question about roll call
Hello Ajay,
From the this meeting's agenda,
I noticed there will be 'Roll Call for Quorum Determination' on Monday, 2:15p.
Beause of my personal condition (actually, my lovely first baby was born just a few days ago),
I am going to arrive at the meeing place on 'Monday' 5:30p.
So, it seems that I will be failed to response the roll call.
Is it means that I cannot participate the down selection voting held on Thursday?
Please relieve my concerns.
- Youn-Hee Han
