[802SEC] mixed mode meeting sub ad hocs -- an update
Dear EC Members,
After some discussion with George and Andrew, it became evident that we should have two tracks for mixed-mode meeting investigations, a short term track and a long term steady state track, hence we've established two sub ad hocs under the 802 re-org ad hoc as follows:
Name: Near-term mixed-mode meeting definitions ad hoc
Chair: George Zimmerman
Scope:
Define how IEEE 802 meetings might operate effectively in the first few meetings returning from all-virtual meetings. The immediate short term goal will be to propose one or more models for presentation to the EC for mixed-mode meetings when not all 802 participants will be able to travel. These will be evaluated by the 802 treasury and meetings teams for logistics and cost of implementation, to be included in summary. Considerations of voting, attendance, and membership will also be considered.
Membership: Volunteers requested, with a goal of at least one member from each IEEE 802 WG and at least one IEEE 802 EC member involved in meeting operation.
Name: Future meeting vision ad hoc
Chair: Andrew Myles
Scope:
Establish a long term vision for how IEEE 802 meetings might operate effectively in the future, possibly challenging the historical assumption that IEEE 802 WGs meeting F2F six times per year is optimal. The immediate goal of the ad hoc will be to understand what has worked well and what has not worked well with remote meetings over the last 18 months, and what would be needed to allow remote meetings to operate better in the future. This understanding will then assist the ad hoc explore the longer term question of how often IEEE 802 WGs should meet F2F, remotely or in a hybrid mode in the future.
Membership:
Volunteers requested, with a goal of at least one member from each IEEE 802 WG and at least one IEEE 802 EC member involved in meeting operation
Stay tuned for more details from George and Andrew and please contact them directly to indicate your desire to participate in their respective sub ad hocs.
Regards,
--Paul
