Bob, Sounds good to me. Mat, Can you initiate a rules change to do this
based on the Motion. In essence we are looking for
section two to reflect this. The text should be amended to read as Each Working
Group, Technical Advisory Group, and Executive Committee Study Group Chair
shall provide a status report to the Executive Committee Recording Secretary no
later than 3 days after
the end of closing Executive Committee meeting. This status report shall
include a description of the progress made during the week, as well as plans
for further work and future meetings. The Recording Secretary shall post these
status reports on the 802 web page no later than one week after the close of
the Plenary meeting. Bob, I assume that you can live with the "one
week" for posting it even if you do not get it until 3 days after the
close. Or do we need to change that number? Mark -----Original
Message----- Mark, I
certainly like this one better than the last. But, it will still require
a rules change ballot and all that entails to officially change the
P&P. I'm willing to look the other way on the one hour part of the
current rule, until the rule change is completed. -Bob -----Original Message----- Bob I am willing to go with
that. I think this will also work for Bob Grow Here is the next attempt: Whereas the IEEE
802 News Bulletin has become a standing means by which the IEEE 802 WGs and
TAGs disseminate timely information, it is resolved that: 1.
The requirement for
the WG Chair to deliver a
"Plenary Closing Status Report" to the EC secretary within an hour of
the close of the WG meeting be relaxed to
three days and that this
input also be made available to the the 802 News Bulletin coordinator to allow
posting of a final version of the News Bulleting one week after the closing of
each 802 plenary. 2.
The WG chair may
delegate this responsibility to a WG member. Bob O'Hara, if you agree to this in
principle can you give me some advice on how to make this
"consistent" with the P&P or do we need to propose a change to
the P&P. Please let me have your comments and I
will see if we are close to consensus. Mark -----Original
Message----- I vehemently object to eliminating the closing reports
from the chairs. I would support relaxing the requirement as to when that
report is required to be provided to the secretary to the three days stated in
the motion. I believe that everything that is required to develop the PR
material can be extracted from the closing reports. I will also ask the chair to rule this motion out of
order, as it is attempting to make a change to the P&P by a simple motion. -Bob -----Original Message----- EC Members, The following constitutes a revision
of the Motion dealing with the support of the IEEE 802 News Bulletin. Attached is the reply I received
form Karen McCabe on the feasibility of working without a pre-plenary draft of
the News Bulletin. She indicates that IEEE staff is willing to work without the
pre-meeting input. Bob Grow indicated that he may be
willing to support a motion on providing input to the news within 3 days in
lieu of the status report due within one hour of the closing of a plenary
session. Based on that I would like your
comments on the following proposed motion for the closing EC meeting. I will
only present if we get a chance of passing the motion otherwise we will take it
up next time. Whereas the IEEE
802 News Bulletin has become the standing means by which the IEEE 802 WGs and
TAGs disseminate timely information, it is resolved that: 1.
The requirement for
the WG Chair to deliver a
"Plenary Closing Status Report" to the EC secretary within an hour of
the close of the WG meeting be replaced with the following responsibilities: 1.
The WG chair is responsible for assuring
that timely input is provided to the 802 News Bulletin coordinator to
facilitate posting of a final version of the News Bulleting one week after the
closing of each 802 plenary. To
this end a summary of the WG
accomplishments shall be provided
within three days of the close of the
Plenary session. 2.
The WG chair may
delegate this responsibility to a WG member. Please let me have your comments and
I will see if we are close to consensus. Mark |
