10. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 10 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.htmlhttp://www.ieee802.org/11/Voter.html

11. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 11 Voting member changes NOTE--When a ballot closes within 14 days of an 802.11 session, any changes in voting member status will be applied after the session –We have to provide list of voting members to meeting organizers 14 days before the session

12. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 12 Current Status Note: Non-Voter includes everybody who attended an 802.11 session since Jan-02; plus those who have selected 802.11 in their MyProject activity profile, even if they have never attended an 802.11 session.

13. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 13 Warning to pay attention to ballots Membership is lost by not responding to 2 out of 3 consecutive mandatory ballots. –Recirculation ballots are the only ones that are not mandatory Some reasons for loss of membership discovered: –Was too busy –Left response to the last moment then got distracted –Left response to the last moment and then got the date wrong –Email filter rule move reflector messages to a folder that is not checked. Bug in spam filter. –Emails ignored –Didnt realize that voting was mandatory –Never joined the STDS-802-11 reflector –LISTSERV removed address from STDS-802-11 Repeated bounces, e.g., invalid address, mailbox full

14. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 14 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. Questions?

15. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 15 Change of numbering systems The number on your badge has changed from an identifier administered by F2F events, associated with your registration data to one administered by IEEE-SA, associated with your IEEE- SA web account. –If you are a voting member and do not have a voting token, see me at the end of this meeting. secretThe number we are now using for 802.11 electronic ballots has also changed – it is NOT your badge number – it is your new secret 802.11 ID. –This number is assigned locally by 802.11 –It will be used new ballots as well as for recirculations of current ballot series –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 Ill send it again A the last ballot ~10 voters used the wrong ID

Access to the reflector is limited to those who have attended at least one IEEE 802.11 session. To change your access, visit the reflector request page: http://www.ieee802.org/11/Reflector.html 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 http://www.ieee802.org/11/Email_Subscribe.html –Gathers less information and sends an email to the Vice Chairs

28. doc.: IEEE 802.11-08/1247r0 Submission November 2008 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 28 Reflector Caveats The LISTSERV system removes an entry from a list if it gets repeated bounces. The WG officers monitor these events and try and fix what we can. –Get daily reports from each list, including about 10 addresses on average causing problems –I check each removed address against the list of voting members and look for alternate known email addresses 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.
