Requesting Voting Membership• Members who are “Nearly Voter” must request to

become a “Potential Voter” at least 14 days before a plenary session.

• Membership will be granted at the start of the next plenary session – i.e. they will start with a voting token.– Have to record attendance for at least one 802.11 slot to

demonstrate presence at the meeting.

• I will send out a reminder to “Nearly Voters” to request voting membership in time to meet this deadline

• Request membership using the online form:– http://www.ieee802.org/11/Voter.html

Submission

Which Working Group Ballots Can I Vote On?

• There are two types of Working Group letter ballot: Mandatory and Recirculation

• All voting members vote on Mandatory Ballots– Check the voters’ list for that ballot (link in the instructions) and contact the

Balloting Coordinator if in any kind of doubt– With each ballot we see some non-voting members attempt to vote

• Only those members who were voting members at the time of the first successful ballot (i.e., > 75%) of a recirculation series can vote in recirculation ballots of that series

– The voting pool is fixed for the lifetime of the series– The list of voters in the pool is published with each ballot (link in the instructions)– Those in the pool only need to vote to change their vote, or to supply additional

comments, otherwise the previous vote is carried forward– With each ballot we see some who are not in the pool attempt to vote

• Summary: Check the voters’ list linked to in the instructions for each working group letter ballot to see if you can vote

Slide 14

Submission

Loosing Voting Membership due to Ballots• According to the current 802.11 rules, voting membership is lost

by not responding to 2 out of 3 consecutive mandatory ballots• This rule is present to ensure that members respond to most

ballots– Otherwise many ballots would be in danger of failing due to less than

50% return

• Since this rule was introduced, we sometimes run two mandatory ballots to finish close together– A single “point of failure” can loose voting membership– See some “active members” loosing voting membership

• Can we do better?– Change “integration time” of rule to > 3 ballots or some time period– 12 mandatory ballots in 2007, 15 ballots in 2008

• Discussion

Submission

Provide comments in format required

• The 802.11 letter ballot instructions document clearly states that comments must be provided using the comment template file (spreadsheet).

• This allows the composite spreadsheet to be compiled without manual cut and paste

• In the last two ballots ~10 members supplied comments using the “single comment” feature of the tool– Unfortunately we cannot disable this feature

• Notice - In future ballots these “single” comments may be marked invalid– I will try and notify any offenders before a ballot closes, but it is the duty

of the voting member to read and comply with instructions rather than rely on me checking up.

Submission

Use your secret 802.11 ID for voting

• The number used for 802.11 electronic ballots is your

secret 802.11 voting ID – it is NOT your badge number – This number is assigned locally by 802.11

– It will never change, and will never be published

– I have sent you an email with this number in it• If you loose this number, ask me and I’ll send it again

• In the last 2 ballots ~6 voters used the wrong ID

Submission

Recording Attendance• It is a requirement that attendees register, in order that a correct

record of attendees and their disclosed affiliations can be recorded in the minutes.

• You must record 75% attendance of eligible 802.11 slots in a meeting for that meeting to count towards gaining or maintaining 802.11 voting membership

• You need a single IEEE-SA web account– The IEEE SA web account requires a working email address– do not remove your email address from the account

• Use the email address associated with that web account when registering attendance– If you change email addresses, update the web account, don’t create a

new web account, or your membership status may not be calculated properly

Reflector Requests• There is an email reflector for the working group, plus

one for each task group.

• Access to the reflector is limited to those who are members with status: aspirant, nearly-voter, potential-voter, voter.

• To change your access, visit the reflector request page:http://www.ieee802.org/11/Reflector.html

– Gathers information and sends an email to Vice Chair

• Or, use the “self service” options described in: http://www.ieee802.org/11/Email_Subscribe.html– Gathers less information and sends an email to the Vice Chairs

Reflector Caveats

• The LISTSERV system removes an entry from a email reflector list if it gets repeated bounces.

• The WG officers (Jon Rosdahl) monitor these events and try and fix what we can.

• If you change email address – please let me know. I will perform a global change to the list servers.

• If you receive no email from STDS-802-11 for a couple of weeks, suspect that something is wrong and contact me.
