ICCOM (http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/iccom/120814mins.pdf)http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/iccom/120814mins.pdf New Activities are required to use the baseline P&Ps, with modifications allowed by the baseline. Don’t allow Activities to follow the P&Ps of the Sponsoring Committee unless the Sponsor P&P specifically calls out IC activities Current 802 P&P does not mention IC Activities Previous IC activities approved by methodology similar to study groups. Only two mentions of study groups in P&P (7.11, 7.12) Therefore, make the change on the following page.
