[802SEC] Fwd: Working group ballot of P802-REV/D1.2
Colleauges -
As discussed in Dallas, please find the Working Group ballot announcement
for the P802 Overview and Architecture revision attached. As this is an
802.1 project, it is being balloted under 802.1 balloting procedures.
Under current rules, all EC members are ex-officio members of all working
groups, and are thus entitled to vote on WG ballots. If you wish to vote on
this ballot, please note the requirements stated below with regard to the
email address to use when returning your ballot, and the Excel template to
use if you wish to make comments. If you are returning a ballot on behalf of
a WG or TAG, please collate your group's comments and provide a single
ballot response in order to make James Gilb's life easier when processing
the ballot results.
WG/TAG Chairs, please forward this information to your groups.
Regards,
Tony

PLEASE!
This Email is attached to an official 802.1 Working Group ballot form for
P802/D1.2 - Overview and Architecture. As this is a full Working Group
ballot, only 802.1 voting members and liaisons are entitled to vote;
however, any non-voting participants in the activities of 802.1 may submit a
"Comment Only" ballot on the draft. In accordance with established practice
in 802 and the IEEE, all comments received, whether from voters or
non-voters, are given due consideration during the Ballot resolution
process.
NOTE: As this is a formal WG ballot, if you vote "Approve" you are stating
that, in your professional opinion, you consider the document to be
technically complete, and ready for Sponsor ballot (i.e., the document is
essentially ready for publication, apart from final editing for style,
etc.). Hence, sending in an "approve" ballot response within a small number
of minutes of the ballot start time cannot possibly mean that the voter has
given the document the level of professional consideration necessary to make
such a judgment. I believe the record so far was less than 10 minutes
between posting the draft and ballot announcement, and receiving the first
"Approve" - and that was on a document that contained Editor's notes
indicating areas where work needed to be done!
The 802.1 voting members that are entitled to a vote on this ballot are as
follows (NOTE: for a WG ballot, the voting population is fixed at the start
of the ballot, and does not change during any subsequent recirculation
ballots, regardless of any membership changes over the course of the
balloting cycle):
Alon, Zehavit
Ao, Ting
Bao, Wanqun
Bottorff, Paul
Brandner, Rudolf

It should be noted that the ongoing retention of 802.1 voting rights is
predicated on active participation in Working Group ballots. Active
participation is defined to be returning ballot forms in two out of the last
three Working Group ballots. The 802 Operating Rules allow abstention for
any cause other than "lack of technical expertise" to be treated as though
it were a failure to respond to a ballot. 802.1 applies this rule.
The closing date of this ballot is:
18th December 2010
