Minutes

1)Rules for WG "Letter Ballot" balloting groups

What happened to text requiring a balloting group for WG LB?

Seem to only have existing in individual WG P&P

Can be added to LMSC WG P&P

Concensus:

Add the following text to the WG P&P:

“The WG balloting group consists of all voting members of the WG as of the opening of the WG ballot, as determined by the WG Chair.”

Place in subclause 9.6 in front of "For a letter ballot on a draft"

Break up paragraph there....

2)Rules for Interim meetings

This is for the Chairs guide
