Steve,  Actually, to set the record straight, the number was not reduced; it was just never increased.  We were trying to get the AP’s for our last meeting (Orlando) where we had 20 loaners already lined up, so we had only asked for 24 for that meeting.  Because of tight timing that was not do-able in time for Orlando but Cisco followed through after the fact and finally approved the discount deal for the 24 we had asked for.  By the time they learned that we had really wanted 44, they had already gotten all the paperwork approved, so rather than jeopardize the approved deal, we agreed to just go ahead with the 24 as approved, and find an alternate way to acquire the additional 20.  You don’t want to get caught looking the gift horse in the mouth.    J   Getting 24 at cost is already very generous. 

 

Cisco has been a very generous supporter of IEEE 802 over the years, and we don’t want to risk being anything but grateful for all the support they have provided. 

 

Thanx,  Buzz

Paul,

 

            Approve.  However, I am disappointed that the number of APs available at the discount price was reduced from the original arrangement.

Dear EC Members,

This is a 10 day email ballot to make a determination on the below motion to allocate additional funds for equipment purchase. 

 

The ballot opens 8PM EDT 5May 2004 and closes 8PM EDT 15May 2004.

 Regards,

 --Paul Nikolich

 

 

Motion: 

Whereas the 802 EC had approved $7,500 for acquisition of 44 Wireless Access Points (WAPs) at the closing EC meeting in Orlando; and

Whereas Cisco Systems has now generously agreed to provide 24 of those WAPs to IEEE 802 for a substantially discounted net value of $3500; and

Whereas that leaves us with the need to acquire 20 additional WAPs on the retail market at an estimated $700 each (total = $14K); and

Whereas we therefore need to allocate an additional $10K to complete the acquisition of the needed equipment in time for our Portland plenary session;

Therefore be it resolved that:  the IEEE 802 Executive Committee approves expenditure of up to an additional $10K for Acquisition of Wireless Access Points for Plenary Meeting Network Support (total of $17,500 for the 44 WAPs). 


Moved:    Rigsbee       Seconded:  Heile
