2. IEEE 802 JTC1 SC is recommending that a LS be sent to SC6 in relation to an allegation from China NB …
JTC1/SC6 recently conducted a ballot on a proposal by the China NB to establish a Security Ad Hoc within WG1
In March 2017, IEEE 802 sent a LS to SC6, although it was only actually posted to the SC6 document server on 10 May 2017
On the 15 May 2017, the same day the ballots closed, the China NB posted a protest in relation IEEE 802’s LS
The protest highlighted a variety of issues; the most important was an allegation that IEEE 802 violated the JTC1 Directives
The IEEE 802 JTC1 SC has developed a response that particularly addresses this allegation, but also includes other related comments
IEEE-SA staff have asked that the LS not be sent if they can resolve the allegation before 31 July 2017 by working directly with ISO staff
