Dear EC members,
During a joint 802.1/802.11 session Thursday morning we discussed
the fact that 1905.1 has a revision PAR on the December NesCom agenda and
agreed that we should become involved in the project as soon as possible.
The joint session unanimously approved the following motion.
Moved, that the Chair of IEEE 802 requests a liaison be established
with IEEE 1905.1a.
Both Tony and I forgot to place the item on the closing EC
agenda.
To remedy the situation, Paul has authorized me to conduct a 10 day
eballot on the motion below.
A draft of the liaison letter is included below the motion.

4.1.2 Voting rules
All EC approvals on motions to progress or establish a project or study
group require explicit vote counts (Yes/No/Abstain) to be reported by the
originating subgroup. At times, it may become necessary for the Sponsor
to render a decision that cannot be made prior to the close of one
plenary but must be made prior to the opening of the following plenary.
Such decisions may be made using electronic balloting. Provision shall be
made for the IEEE 802 LMSC membership to observe and comment on Sponsor
electronic ballots. All comments from those who are not members of the
Sponsor shall be considered. Commenters who are not members of the
Sponsor are urged to seek a Voting Member of the Sponsor (normally their
WG or TAG Chair) to include the viewpoint of the commenter in their
vote.
The Sponsor Chair, or a Sponsor member designated by the Sponsor Chair
(usually a Vice Chair), shall determine the duration of the ballot, issue
the ballot by e-mail and tally the votes after the ballot is closed.
Sponsor Voting Members shall return their vote and comments by
e-mail.
The minimum duration of an electronic ballot shall be 10 days1. For
urgent matters once sufficient response is received to clearly decide a
matter, the ballot may be closed early. This allows a decision to be
reach in less than 10 days. Ballots where the possibility of an early
close exists must be clearly marked accordingly. Otherwise, the tally of
votes shall not be made until at least 24 hours after the close of the
ballot to allow time for delivery of the e-mail votes.
