"RevCom Policy for Recirculation Ballots in Progress 40 Days Prior to
the IEEE-SA Standards Board Meeting (25/15 Day Policy)
RevCom will consider recommending approval of a project if a
recirculation is in progress at the 40-day cutoff date provided the text
of the recirculated draft and all documentation except ballot results of
the recirculation are submitted by the cutoff date. **This shall
include the recirculation package sent to the ballot group.** The
documentation must also include resolution of negative ballots resulting
from prior ballots.
There shall be no negative votes on new issues, but additional negatives
on prior issues are allowed, provided the 75% affirmative required for
approval is achieved.
**Projects that have not achieved the required approval, return, or
abstention rates as of the last ballot conducted prior to the submittal
deadline are not eligible for consideration under this convention.**
No changes are to be made in the recirculated draft as submitted for the
40-day cutoff date except those normally made in preparation for
publication.
The Sponsor shall review results of the recirculation ballot and, if the
above conditions are met, may submit results of the recirculation ballot
to the Secretary of RevCom 25 days before the IEEE-SA Standards Board
meeting. The submittal may be electronically transmitted.
The Secretary of RevCom will transmit the results of the recirculation
ballot to the members of RevCom no later than 15 days before the IEEE-SA
Standards Board meeting. The information may be electronically
transmitted.
RevCom will not consider a submittal if the recirculation commences
after the 40-day cutoff date. These submittals should
be considered at a future RevCom meeting."
