10. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 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 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 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 –Effect of LB147 is not included in these figures

13. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 13 Ballots

14. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 14 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

15. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 15 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 In 802.11, any member that responds to 4 out of 6 consecutive mandatory ballots is deemed active by the 802.11 chair, and will not loose their voting membership

16. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 16 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 each ballot, some members supply 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 Occasionally, comments are supplied using the wrong template – i.e. an IEEE-SA sponsor ballot comment template. –Always download the comment template from the instruction page.

17. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 17 secret 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 Ill send it again In each ballots several voters use the wrong ID

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

21. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 21 Attendance Procedures Prior to or during the meeting: –(one time) Get a free Web Account if you dont already have one.

33. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 33 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 http://www.ieee802.org/11/Reflector.html –Gathers information and sends an email to Vice Chair If you change email address – please let me know. I will perform a global change to the list servers.

34. doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0517r0 Submission May 2009 Adrian Stephens, Intel CorporationSlide 34 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 receive no email from STDS-802-11 for a couple of weeks, suspect that something is wrong and contact me.
