Group Chair is required to disclose to the Working Group Chair's intent to offer a position
contrary to a Directed Position. When presenting a Directed Position to the IEEE 802 LMSC, the
Working Group Chair is obligated to present and support the Working Group’s Directed Position
motion with voting results, along with pros and cons behind the motion.
6.3 Delegation of Working Group Chair duties to Working Group Vice Chair
A Working Group Chair who is unable to attend a IEEE 802 LMSC meeting may designate, by
notification to the IEEE 802 LMSC Chair, a Vice Chair of that Working Group to act in place of
the Working Group Chair.
In the absence of a Working Group Chair at a IEEE 802 LMSC meeting without prior
notification, the IEEE 802 LMSC Chair should recognize a Vice Chair of that Working Group to
act in place of the Working Group Chair.
Regardless of the above no individual may exercise more than one vote at IEEE 802 LMSC
meetings.
