Re: [802SEC] +++un-conflicted EC motion #4 regarding 802.20+++determine Mark Klerer's unconflcted/conflicted classification+++need mover and seconder+++
Paul,
Not that I have any official voice in this discussion, but could you
recap for us exactly how the original members of the UC-EC were
identified and by whom they were identified? I don't recall a motion
and discussion of this nature taking place on the determination of the
original makeup of the UC-EC. Of course, it could just be the Percocet
interfering with my memory this morning. But, wasn't the original
determination made by the SASB, not the EC? Shouldn't they be
responsible for making the same determination with respect to Mark's
position?
