IEEE 802.15.3 Voting Process (1 of 2) November 2000 doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/343r0 January 2001 IEEE 802.15.3 Voting Process (1 of 2) a) for the voters, by ballot vote, to vote for one proposal or none of the above. (Voting record will be posted following the vote.) b) the proposal (or proposals in case of a "tie") receiving the least votes is eliminated c) the process continues with a vote as in "a" and "b" eliminating proposals one by one each time the number of proposals in the eliminating process has been reduced to four and two a panel discussion shall be held with the remaining proposers as panel members. The length of discussion shall be limited to 15 minutes times the number of remaining proposals. Discussion shall be limited to voting members and the presenters (or their designate).

IEEE 802.15.3 Voting Process (2 of 2) November 2000 doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/343r0 January 2001 IEEE 802.15.3 Voting Process (2 of 2) d) when one proposal is left the voters shall vote (roll call) for the proposal or none of the above and the proposal shall be required to achieve a 75% majority in order to be submitted to the working group as a recommendation. If the remaining proposal fails to achieve a 75% majority, the members who voted "no" shall be requested to state why they voted no and what would be required to change their vote to an affirmative vote. The proposer shall have an opportunity to respond to the concerns of the no voters. After which a roll call vote will be taken to approve the proposal. e) if the last remaining proposal fails to receive 75% majority, the process shall begin again with the proposals remaining after 50% were eliminated.

November 2000 doc.: IEEE 802.15-00/343r0 January 2001 Panel Process Total time for panel is 15 minutes * number of remaining proposals Two minute position statement from each member of the panel (optional) Q&A – Questions may only be asked by voting members. FIFO queue of questions will be kept by Chair. Only one question per position in the queue. Questions must be stated in no more than one minute Answers must be stated in no more than two minutes No motions will be considered during the panel. John Barr, Motorola John Barr, Motorola
