[802.3_100GCU] Reminder - Restrictive Notices



All,

As this is the first meeting of the Study Group, some may not be familiar with rules and procedures.  I have already received some emails with presentation requests that include a restrictive notice at the bottom of the respective emails. 

 

As noted in the call for presentations - As a reminder, please make sure that all requests for presentations or submissions of presentation material have no restrictive notices at the bottom of the email.  All such emails will be refused and requests / presentations will not be acknowledged. 

 

Per the IEEE Standards Association Operations Manual:

 

4.1.1.5 Confidentiality Statements and Copyright Notices on Communications

 

The IEEE-SA Standards Board and its committees operate in an open manner.

To that end, no material submitted to the IEEE-SA Standards Board or its committees will be accepted or considered if it contains any statement that places any burden on the recipient(s) with respect to confidentiality or copyright. Any communication, including electronic mail, containing language with such restrictive wording will not be accepted or considered.

 

It should be noted that this policy does not apply to IEEE copyrighted materials, such as draft standards. In the event that copyrighted materials are to be incorporated in an IEEE standard, an acceptable copyright release or assignment must be obtained from the copyright owner prior to approval of the standard by the IEEE-SA Standards Board.

 

Also, please note per the Presentation Style Guidelines on the Procedures for Presenters (http://www.ieee802.org/3/100GCU/public/presentproc.html) :  No company copyright or confidentiality statements.  All presentations are posted to a publicly available web site.  If the presentation is not ready for public disclosure, then it should not presented.

 

All presenters are asked to review their presentation prior to submission.  Attention to this matter will be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

John D’Ambrosia
