802.20 Letter Ballot 1
Instructions These
instructions apply only for the 802.20 letter ballot 1 (LB1) on Draft 1.0 of the
802.20 Standard. Important: Follow the instructions. Failure to follow the instructions may result in your vote
being discarded as an invalid vote due to an error or at the discretion of the
WG Chairman. Letter ballots are an enormous amount of work for the leadership of
the group. The only way to have this ballot processed accurately and in a timely
manor is for voting members to cooperate and following the instructions.
The list of
voters for this ballot is the same as the posted list of voters for the January
2006 Interim. The ballot opens
January 27, 2006 at 2359 Eastern Time and closes 40 days later on March 8, 2006
at 2359 Eastern Time. Motion:

Ballot. To
Vote: YOU MUST Insert in the Subject field of the return
email: Vote-LB1-last name-first name-(yes, no or

Obtaining the draft: Draft 1.0 of
IEEE 802.20 is available at http://www.ieee802.org/20/private/P802.20-D1.0.pdf
The draft is
password protected. To obtain the
draft, use the username and the password supplied to voting members for the
private area. Submitting Comments: To submit
comments, the following instructions must be
followed: 0)
Form:
The official ballot and comment
form for Letter Ballot 79 must be used.
This comment form is available at http://www.ieee802.org/20/private/LB1_BallotCommentForm.xls. 1)
Names: In the header
of comment response form, please fill in your name in the <First Name>,
<Last Name> fields. Do not
use your initials or anything else. 2)
Clause Column: This
is the section number of the draft that your comment applies to - e.g. 2.1 or
4.2.3. If you have a comment that
applies to the entire document put "General" in the section field. Don’t put
“all”, “many”, “various” or any other word you may personally fancy. If the
field contains anything other that a clause number or “General”, the comment
will be discarded and your vote possibly invalidated. If your comment relates to a table,
place the clause in which the table resides in this column and not the table
number. Put only the clause number
and not the words, e.g. “clause”. 3)
E/T Column: Please
use an E or T only to indicate a technical or an editorial comment. Please use
upper case only so things sort right when we get all done. Incorrectly categorized comments will be
re-categorized by the Working Group Chair. 4)
"Part of No vote” Column: If you say "no" in this column, we will feel free to skip
that comment in terms of formally satisfying a "NO" vote. For any comment that
is not part of your “NO” vote, mark it as "not part of a no vote" by entering
“no” in the column. Any voter that votes “NO” should have at least one comment
marked “yes” as part support for their “NO” vote. Any voter that votes “YES” should not
have any comments marked “yes” in this
column. 5)
"comment/explanation" and "recommended change"
columns: These are pretty self
explanatory. If you do not recommend a change the comment may be skipped as you
have not asked the group to do anything. Please keep the explanation of the
comment separate from what you want done as a result of your reasoning. The
voting group is too large for the group to be interpreting what you are
requesting. Please remember
that the operating rules state that all “No” votes MUST be accompanied by
comments which include specific reasons and enough information for the group to
understand what you desire in order to change your “no” to a “yes”. Simply
saying “not good enough” is insufficient as the task group cannot reasonably be
expected to understand what would satisfy the commenter and so invalidation of
the vote is justifiable. 6)
Draft line numbers:
If you choose to include a page / line number reference in your comments, please
do so by putting is as text at the start of your comment. Do NOT put this info
in the section number field. The rational is that the page/line numbers are
valid only for the balloted draft version.
The section numbers are more likely to still be correct in later
versions. Jerry Upton,
