IEEE 802 WG Voting Rules 5.1.3 Membership
September 1999 IEEE 802 WG Voting Rules 5.1.3 Membership All persons participating in the initial meeting of the Working Group become voting members of the Working Group. Thereafter, voting membership in a Working Group is established by participating in the meetings of the Working Group at two out of the last four Plenary sessions, and (optionally) a letter of intent to the Chair of the Working Group. Membership starts at the third Plenary session. One duly constituted interim Working Group or task group meeting may be substituted for the Working Group meetings at one of the two Plenary sessions (See Meetings and Participation). Members of the Working Group who have not achieved voting status are known as observers. Liaison members are those designated individuals who provide liaison with other working groups or standards bodies. Robert F. Heile, GTE

IEEE 802.15 WG Membership Rules
September 1999 IEEE WG Membership Rules The rules and procedures governing WG membership including establishment, retention, loss and rights are contained in the Operating rules of IEEE Project 802 (See ref [1], 5.1.3). The following additional requirement are imposed within WG : TG and SG meetings do not count towards WG voting rights unless they are held in conjunction with a WG meeting. In that case they are treated as if the member attended the parallel meeting within the WG. To establish voting rights participants must request to become a voter during a WG Opening or Closing plenary meeting when additions to the voter list are solicited by the Chair from the "Nearly Voting Member" list.

One interim meeting may be substituted for a plenary meeting. Participation is defined as attending 75% of all meetings during an officially sanctioned session of the WG Voting rights may be lost by: Failure to pay conference fee Missing two out of three consecutive letter ballots Failure to maintain contact information Robert F. Heile, GTE

Patents -IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws (Jan 1998)
September 1999 Patents -IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws (Jan 1998) 6. Patents IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, if there is technical justification in the opinion of the standards-developing committee and provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder that it will license applicants under reasonable terms and conditions for the purpose of implementing the standard. This assurance shall be provided without coercion and prior to approval of the standard (or reaffirmation when a patent becomes known after initial approval of the standard). This assurance shall be a letter that is in the form of either a) A general disclaimer to the effect that the patentee will not enforce any of its present or future patent(s) whose use would be required to implement the proposed IEEE standard against any person or entity using the patent(s) to comply with the standard or b) A statement that a license will be made available to all applicants without compensation or under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination.

September 1999 Patents - IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual (Mar 1998) 6.3 Patents The patent policy is set forth in clause 6 of the IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws. Patent holders shall submit letters of assurance to the IEEE Standards Department (to the attention of the Staff Administrator, Intellectual Property Rights) before the time of IEEE-SA Standards Board review for approval.

Patents - IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual (Mar 1998)
September 1999 Patents - IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual (Mar 1998) 6.3.1 Public notice The following notice shall appear when the IEEE receives assurance from a known patent holder prior to the time of publication that a license will be made available to all applicants either without compensation or under reasonable rates, terms, and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination. Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken with respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. The IEEE shall not be responsible for identifying patents for which a license may be required by an IEEE standard or for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of those patents that are brought to its attention. A patent holder has filed a statement of assurance that it will grant licenses under these rights without compensation or under reasonable rates and nondiscriminatory, reasonable terms and conditions to all applicants desiring to obtain such licenses. The IEEE makes no representation as to the reasonableness of rates and/or terms and conditions of the license agreements offered by patent holders. Further information may be obtained from the IEEE Standards Department. If the IEEE has not received letters of assurance prior to the time of publication, the following notice shall appear: Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require use of subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken with respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. The IEEE shall not be responsible for identifying patents for which a license may be required by an IEEE standard or for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of those patents that are brought to its attention. 6.3.2 Submittal Through the working group, the Sponsor chair shall request that known patent holders submit a statement either that the patent does not apply to the standard or that licenses will be made available without compensation or under reasonable rates, terms, and conditions. This assurance shall be obtained without coercion and submitted to the IEEE at the earliest practical time prior to the approval of an IEEE standard. The IEEE encourages early disclosure to the working group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard. While standards may include the known use of patents if there is technical justification, the working group should not attempt to determine whether or not a patent applies. The working group shall accept the view of the patent holder. 6.3.3 Disclaimer The IEEE shall not be responsible for identifying all patents for which a license may be required by an IEEE standard or for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of those patents that are brought to its attention.
