RE: [802SEC] Re: IEEE-SA CLARIFICATION ON TRADEMARK(TM) AND REGISTERED TRADEMARK(R) USAGE




Roger,

I have been informed by Karen Rupp of the policy, but have been waiting for
feedback from IEEE-SA staff on the definition of derivatives before sharing
it with the SEC.  Judy Gorman has promised me that it will be forthcoming
soon.  Once I receive that I will share it with the SEC members.

The article below is from today's SOCIETY SENTINEL - Vol. 7, No. 16.

Has the SEC received this information before? I don't recall seeing it.

The results don't exactly match my recollection of the meeting.
