Re: [802SEC] RE: [802SEC] EC Motion - RE: [802SEC] Update to EC on IMT-Advanced



Roger's message came in after I finished in the office for the day, but
Steve's explaination is precisely correct.

Providing the direction (and boundaries) to the WGs to work on this work at
this point is necessary to assure that work progresses.  Waiting until the
Nov plenary would severely restrict the time available to complete the work
for January.

Roger,

	I believe that Carl wants to ensure that all the working groups work
together with 802.18 to prepare a unified submission from IEEE 802 to the
ITU.  I believe that Mike has a goal of finishing this work by the November
Plenary at which point is can be voted on by the EC.  So I believe he wants
to resolve this issue well before the next Plenary.  So it sees that an
electronic ballot would be required since waiting until November would be
too late. Carl and Mike can elaborate in more detail themselves in case I
did not touch on all the main points.

Regards,
Steve

Carl,

I don't understand the nature of your proposal. Are you proposing an
Electronic Ballot, under 7.1.3.4? If so, then you should address the terms
specified in 7.1.3.4: "At times, it may become necessary for the EC 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."

Considering that the next ITU-R meeting on this topic is scheduled for
January 2008, what is it about this issue that the EC needs to decide before
the November plenary?

I'm also confused by the content of your suggestion. That's because the
existing P&P includes a subclause (14.2) with a detailed procedure to cover
the issue. We've used that procedure many times.  
Are you saying it is inadequate in this case? Is there an aspect of the
existing procedure that raises your concern about "individual WGs...
presenting individual, potentially differing, inputs to ITU-R"?

And are you suggesting that your motion would override the existing
procedure in 14.2?

Regards,

Roger
