Re: [802SEC] LMSC OM Section 5. IEEE 802 LMSC sessions -- 802 Chair interpretation



Hi Paul,
I agree with your minimal change.
However, I would ask that we fix a syntax error as well at the same time.

Please change
"Additionally, IEEE 802 TAGs are allowed to have electronic meetings to make decisions between meetings, but such meetings do not count for participation credit."

To
"Additionally, IEEE 802 LMSC, WG, TAG, or ECSG are allowed to have electronic meetings to make decisions between plenary sessions, but such
meetings do not count for participation credit.

Again, this is a minimal change that would correct an error of "meeting vs plenary session", and allowing more than TAGs to have electronic meetings.

Regards,
Jon

Dear All,

As per the discussion during today's rule webcon,  I intend to resolve an ambiguity in the LMSC OM Secton 5 sentence "All WG meetings shall only be face-to-face, electronic meetings are not allowed." by interpreting it to be read as if the phrase "during each Plenary session" is inserted as shown in bold as follows: "All WG meetings [during each Plenary session] shall only be face-to-face, electronic meetings are not allowed."

The complete Section 5 text with the insertion in bold is shown below.

The intent is to allow properly announced electronic WG meetings to be held electronically as long as they are not held during a Plenary session.

Section 5 of the LMSC OM state 

5. IEEE 802 LMSC sessions
There is no membership requirement for attendance at an IEEE 802 LMSC plenary session or an
interim session of an IEEE 802 LMSC subgroup; they are open forums. However, anyone who
attends any portion of a technical meeting that is part of an IEEE 802 LMSC plenary session or
an interim session of an IEEE 802 LMSC subgroup is obligated to comply with the registration
requirements for the session.

For the purposes of this OM, a technical meeting is defined as, but is not limited to, any meeting
of a IEEE 802 LMSC WG, TAG, ECSG, any of their subgroups, or any call for interest at an
IEEE 802 LMSC session.

All active IEEE 802 WGs shall meet face-to-face during each IEEE 802 Plenary session. All
WG meetings [during each Plenary session] shall only be face-to-face, electronic meetings are not allowed. Additionally, IEEE
802 TAGs are allowed to have electronic meetings to make decisions between meetings, but such
meetings do not count for participation credit.

The WG Chair may designate specific individual experts who are allowed to participate in WG
discussions via electronic means during a face-to-face meeting for the benefit of the group.
These individuals are not considered to be attending the meeting and so they are not required to
pay meeting fees and they do not get participation credit. The participation of these individuals
should be limited to specific technical topics. Such participation shall be documented in the
minutes of the WG meeting.
