Re: [802SEC] Attendance Credit At LMSC WG Meetings



John,

I also agree that #1 is the right interpretation.  However, as chair I
feel you have a fair amount of discretion.  I would first talk to the
person before making any decisions.  Also, be prepared to back it up.
It is often difficult to say exactly what percentage of a particular
meeting period a person attended.  If you can't back it up with
evidence, then I would error on the side of leniency and let things
slide.  Either way you should talk to the person and make sure they are
aware of the attendance policies.

Subject: [802SEC] Attendance Credit At LMSC WG Meetings

More experienced ones:

I'm seeking some advice on how to handle a claim of attendance at the
most recent plenary meeting. One person managed to sign-in for 75% of
the half-day sign-in slots for 802.17. However, said person was not
actually in attendance for more than a few minutes for some of those
periods.

What would you recommend we do in such a situation?

1. Strike the sign-ins for the periods when the person was in attendance
for only a few minutes, and notify them of the action?
2. Strike the sign-ins for the periods when the person was in attendance
for only a few minutes, without notifying them of the action?
3. Count this as a learning experience and institute tighter control on
the sign-in booklet in the future?
4. Other?

If you chose 3, how would you recommend preventing this abuse in the
future?

Tony, I came in to the 802.1 meeting for our joint 802.1/802.17 meeting
just as you were finishing saying something about this to the 802.1
participants. I missed most of what you said. Could you repeat it here?

Thanks,
John Lemon
