>As this is a confirmation ballot, some different rules apply:
>
>- The balloting period is only 15 days; the closing date is:
>
> 12 May 2003
>
>- The subject matter of the ballot is NOT the entire document; the scope
>of this ballot is ONLY those changes to the draft that were made in order
>to resolve the D1 ballot comments, and any ballot resolutions that may
>have been incorrectly applied.
>
>- You need to return a ballot ONLY if you wish to change your previous
>vote on P802.1d/D1. If you do not return a ballot, your previous vote
>will apply unchanged.
>
>- Responses are particularly solicited from those voters that made
>Disapprove votes on the previous ballot, namely Tony Jeffree, Norm Finn,
>Les Bell, in order to confirm their verbal indication that the agreed
>ballot resolutions address their concerns, and that these have been
>correctly applied in the current draft.
>
>- Assuming that this ballot completes with no new negative votes, there
>will shortly be a sponsor ballot on this draft. The scope of the Sponsor
>ballot is the whole text. The editors particularly request that any issues
>identified with the document that are not within the scope of the
>confirmation ballot be separately identified now if at all possible to
>allow the group maximum time to consider the correct action to be taken.
>The chair extends his usual invitation to submit sponsor ballot comments
>on behalf of anyone not in the sponsor ballot pool.
>
>- The editors will accept notification of any editorial nits that have
>escaped so far, separate from the ballot. Editorial and spelling issues
>etc. are routinely dealt with in preparation of final text after all
>ballot completion, but another set of eyes is always useful.
>
>- Only those 802.1 voting members and liaisons that were eligible to vote
>on the P802.1d/D1 ballot are entitled to vote in this ballot. Those
>people are:
>
>D1 vote Name
>------- ----

>Further notes relevant to the D2 text:
>-----------------------------
>
>- Annex A, the PICS, has been completely revised as expected and following
>the resolution of comments and discussion at the last meeting. In the rest
>of the document change bars highlight the areas of change made for this
>revision.
>
>- This will be the last time that Annex Z appears attached to this
>document. It will be removed from the sponsor ballot, updated as necessary
>to reflect any final changes, and made available on the 802.1 website. Any
>comments on Annex Z therefore fall outside the ballot proper, but will
>still be gratefully received as the final version of this annex is prepared.
>
>- This will also be the last time that the change barred versions of the
>state machines appear in a draft. Final versions of these will be
>incorporated into the archived Annex Z. The sponsor ballot will have clean
>copies of the machines.
>
>
>As is normal with 802.1 ballots, any ballot comments must specify not only
>what problems have been identified with the text, but also what the
>commenter proposes as a solution. In particular, any Disapprove ballots
>are required to be accompanied by a clear statement of the changes that
>the voter requires to be made to the text in order for the ballot to be
>changed to Approve. Any comments accompanying the ballot must be presented
>using the following template:
>
>NAME: <Your Name>
>COMMENT TYPE: <TR (Technical, Required), T (Technical), ER (Editorial,
>Required), or E (Editorial)>
>CLAUSE: <Clause/subclause number>
