John Lohmeyer, the T10 Chair, called the meeting to order at 1:30 p.m., Thursday July 17, 2008. He thanked Bob Nixon and Anne McDonald of Emulex for hosting the meeting.
John said that INCITS subgroup membership forms and the T10 document subscription forms are available on the meeting web site. He said that people should use these forms to ensure the INCITS Secretariat has the latest membership information. These forms should be mailed directly to the INCITS Secretariat.
As is customary, the people attending introduced themselves. Attendance See Meeting Attendees. was taken electronically via the meeting web site.
On behalf of the INCITS leadership, the committee presented the INCITS Lifetime Achievement award to John Lohmeyer in recognition his 21 years of service as committee chair.
No additions/changes were made to the draft agenda.
John Lohmeyer moved and Ralph Weber seconded that the agenda be approved. In the absence of any objections, the motion passed unanimously.
The following items were added or modified in the agenda during the course of the meeting:
9.2.2 Numbering notes in ISO standards
The membership requirements were reviewed. INCITS rules permit one vote per organization. An individual from a new organization must attend two out of three consecutive plenary meetings. He/she may apply for voting membership the second meeting via a letter to the Chair of T10. The individual may begin voting at the beginning of his/her second meeting. People who continue to attend T10 meetings are expected to join T10 and to pay INCITS Service Fees.
To maintain membership, organizations must pay the INCITS Service Fee ($1200 per year).
John briefly discussed the mailing fees. Complete pricing information is contained in the 2008 membership form (available at http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/mem_form.txt).
There are also minimum attendance requirements to maintain voting membership on T10. If a member organization fails to attend two of the last three T10 meetings, they are warned that failing to attend the next T10 meeting would result in their membership being terminated.
The Chair said he had sent emails to 4 people from 2 organizations informing them that the organization's membership was in jeopardy due to non-attendance (see 08-245r0) and that their membership would be terminated if they did not attend this meeting. The following organizations were in attendance jeopardy:
All organizations in attendance jeopardy were present except:
The representatives of this organization had their membership changed to Advisory (non-voting) status.
John called for requests to join the committee. No organizations joined at this meeting.
The T10 membership during the meeting was 36 organizations, down from the 37 member organizations extant at the time the meeting was convened. Enclosure (1) is the list of the people present at the meeting and enclosure (3) is the current T10 membership list.
John Lohmeyer reminded members that failure to vote on two out of the last three letter ballots also would result in membership jeopardy. Accelerated and personnel letter ballots are not included in letter ballot jeopardy calculations.
The current letter ballot jeopardy status is as shown:

John Lohmeyer requested that all documents for the next mailing be uploaded to the T10 web site by 10:30 a.m. Mountain time on Thursday July 24, 2008. Documents received after this time may go into a subsequent mailing.
John reminded the committee of the requirements for document submission.

This means that Portable Document Format (PDF) and/or native-format electronic originals with proper identification must be submitted.
People can obtain T10 document numbers for new and revised T10 documents by filling out a web form at http://www.t10.org/members/. The assigned T10 document number will be sent to the requestor by e-mail. The requestor may then reply to this email, including the document to be posted as an attachment. The document will be automatically posted on the T10 web site.
T10 members can complete this entire process using their personal T10 password. John explained that members who do not know their password should surf to the above URL and click on the "forgot password" link to have their password sent to them via e-mail.
John noted that non-members can also use the above document number process, but their requests will require approval by an administrator.
Minutes are available on the T10 World Wide Web page (see below), and are distributed to the T10 Reflector.
To be added to the T10 Reflector, send an e-mail to majordomo@t10.org with the line 'subscribe t10' in the message body.

The long-term T10 meeting week schedule is:
NOTE: Dates, locations, and hosts shown above in red italic font have not been approved by T10 yet and are subject to change.
John Lohmeyer asked people interested hosting one of the above meetings to contact him.
John Lohmeyer moved that the meeting hosts and dates not already approved be approved through July 2010. Curtis Stevens second the motion. In the absence of objections, the motion passed unanimously
14.1 Authorization of Working Group Meetings
John noted that the working group meetings are required to operate under the same voting procedures as does T10 (that is, one vote per organization) and the results of a working group are not binding on the parent committee. Working groups should strive to achieve consensus prior to bringing issues to T10.
Kevin Butt moved that T10 authorize the T10-related meetings and events in the list above that had not previously been approved. Mark Seidel seconded the motion. In the absence of any objections, the motion passed unanimously.
John Lohmeyer moved and Ralph Weber seconded that the meeting be adjourned. In the absence of any objections, the motion passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 3:40 p.m. on Thursday July 17, 2008.
