August 2010
Meeting the terms of conditional approval
As per LMSC OM Clause 14:
Recirculation ballot is completed. Generally, the recirculation ballot and resolution should occur in accordance with the schedule presented at the time of conditional approval.
The Ballot occurred, in accordance with the schedule presented to the EC in document 11-10/0801r02.
After resolution of the recirculation ballot is completed, the approval percentage is at least 75% and there are no new valid DISAPPROVE votes.
The approval percentage is 92%
There are no new valid disapprove votes.
No technical changes, as determined by the WG Chair, were made as a result of the recirculation ballot.
No technical changes were made as a result of the recirculation ballot.
No new valid DISAPPROVE comments on new issues that are not resolved to the satisfaction of the submitter from existing DISAPPROVE voters
There were 16 comments received, of which 7 were marked disapprove, from 3 voters. All three voters subsequently withdrew their disapprove comments. Two of the disapprove comments were received from a new no voter who changed his vote to approve on withdrawal of his comments.
So there are no new disapprove comments.
