4. Approval of Agenda Kevin reminded participants that all documents can be found at the COM/SDB Community Website: http://community.comsoc.org/groups/comsoc-standards-development-board-sdb JP moved and Farooq seconded the motion to approve the agenda. No objections were recorded. The agenda was approved by acclamation.

5. Approval of the 11 June 2012 COM/SDB Minutes Farooq moved and VP seconded the motion to approve the minutes. No objections were recorded. The minutes were approved by acclamation.

6. Discussions a. [INFORMATION] P1906.1 revised its liaison letter to IEC. The letter acknowledged the receipt of the requested information from IEC/TC113 on (1) The precise core definitions of nanoscale components and (2) A broad set of definitions regarding common nanotechnology terminology.

b. [ACTION] The Finance Ad Hoc Committee (Farooq, Don, Alex, Curtis, Glen, Kevin, and Lisa) discussed the proposed COM/SDB financial models and the comments received from SCs and WGs, and will conduct a teleconference to revise the proposal before the next COM/SDB teleconference.

c. [ACTION] The P&P Ad Hoc Committee (Kevin, Rob, Farooq, and Alex) reported on the status of the redlined draft COM/SDB P&Ps document, and will incorporate changes into the upcoming Sponsor baseline P&Ps.

of 6 d. [ACTION] The IEEE P1858 on “Standard for Camera Phone Image Quality (CPIQ)” is currently sponsored by the IEEE-SA Board of Governors/Corporate Advisory Group (BOG/CAG). COM/SDB discussed the potential co-sponsorship of P1858 since it is complementary to P1907.1 on “Standard for Network-Adaptive Quality of Experience (QoE) Management Scheme for Real-Time Mobile Video Communications.” VP moved and JP seconded the motion to offer co-sponsorship of IEEE P1858 upon approval of BOG/CAG and P1858 WG. The motion was approved with five yes votes and zero no votes. Farooq will present COM/SDB at the first P1858 WG meeting on August 16, 2012 in Seattle, Washington.

7. Other business There was no other business.

8. Adjournment Glen moved and VP seconded the motion to adjourn the teleconference. No objections were recorded. The teleconference was adjourned at 11:20 AM EDT.
