[smartpower-interest] Fwd: SGIP Members News>>Standing Committees Voting Announcement

[Fred Baker <[e-mail]>]

Folks:

As a member of the SGIP, and specifically the voting member on behalf  
of the IETF, I need to file a vote on each of these standing  
committees. It's not clear to me whether the vote is "select and vote  
in favor of 8 out of ..." or "select one". Any insight you have here  
would be useful to me. Reply either publicly or privately as you see  
fit.

To access the links, you may have to get a Twiki password. It's  
trivial and free, but allows them to log accesses.

TIA

Fred

> In fulfillment of this duty, the Plenary Chair formed a nominations
