Subject: Reminder to B10 Chairman Concerning Membership Compliance - Action Item 2 from the February 2003 SPB Meeting
From: John Neumann, SDB Liaison to B10




Brian,

This is a reminder that INCITS procedures require its TCs and TGs to moniter its membership for compliance with procedures regarding meeting attendance and voting responses to Letter Ballots.  Doing so eliminates confusion about voting elegibility. Basically, the rules are that a member must attend two out of three meetings, and respond to two out of three letter ballots to maintain voting rights.  When a member fails to meet his requirements, a jeopardy letter must be sent advising the member how he may be removed from jeopardy (attend the next scheduled meeting or return the next letter ballot).  Please note that these procedures also apply to TGs.

Regards,

John Neumann
B10 Liaison
