[802SEC] RE: +++ SEC Ballot: Forward IEEE 802.15.1 to Sponsor Ballot
I vote Disapprove.
I do so because of what I judge to be open technical issues. In the
"unresolved negative comment Workbook", the worksheet labeled "LB10
All Comments, as of 3May01" includes several comments which, though
marked "Accepted", are also marked "Open". I understand this to mean
that they have not been incorporated; I have spot-checked some of
these and found that they are indeed not in the draft under review.
It appears to me that several of these (including 7, 8, 14, and 19)
are substantial, noneditorial issues.
In addition, the worksheet labeled "LB8 All Comments, as of 3May01"
shows nine comments marked Accepted and Open. All of these are marked
as "Technical" comments. I don't have enough information to determine
whether these changes were ever implemented in the draft, so I will
assume that database is correct in reporting that they remain Open.

SEC OFFICIAL EMAIL BALLOT 802.0/8May2001
Issue Date: 8May2001 Closing Date: 19May2001
Moved By: Bob Heile Seconded By: Stuart Kerry
Move: Approve Forwarding to Sponsor Ballot: 802.15.1 (Draft Standard for
Part 15.1: Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY)
specifications for Wireless Personal Area Networks(TM))
Notes:
1) During the Recirculation Ballot, one additional No voter made eight
comments, these comments were resolved without Technical Changes to the
draft through discussions with the WG Ballot Resolution Group, and the No
voter has changed his vote to an approve. The original NO voter continued to
vote NO with additional NO comments. Because of the additional No vote
received (even though resolved), a new SEC motion is required for approval
to move to Sponsor Ballot.
2) During the IEEE 802 Plenary HH SEC Meeting on 15Mar01 the following
motion was approved:
"Move that the ExCom forward IEEE Draft 802.15.1/D1.0 to Sponsor ballot,
based on a successful completion of a WG re-circulation ballot. Conditional
approval to expire at the beginning of the Portland Plenary Meeting"
3) The final ballot count is:
74 Working Group Voting Members
56 Voting Approve
1 Voting Do Not Approve (Disapprove comments circulated during last
recirculation ballot)
1 Abstain
