Re: [802SEC] +++EC Motion+++ Motion to Confirm Denis Kuwahara as Vice-chair of 802.18--(open July30-close Aug 29th)



DISAPPROVE

Unless 802.18 has its own approved procedures in place that contradict the 802 procedures I feel that I am forced to vote against this motion.

Our procedures say:
5.1.2 Chair
LMSC Working Group Chairs and Vice Chairs shall be elected by the Working Group and
confirmed by the LMSC Executive Committee.

By my read of what has been put before me "appointed by the chair and affirmed by the membership" is not the same or even equivalent to "elected by the Working Group"

This is no reflection whatsoever on Denis whom I would have been delighted to vote to confirm had his placement been done according to procedure.

If I am mistaken please point me to chapter and verse.
