Code Review Process
The deadline to vote on proposed changes to the EICC Code of Conduct was January 9, 2012. The results of the vote were distributed to primary contacts on January 11. Objections must be filed in writing by January 27.
Full Members may initiate re-votes on specific proposals according to the following process:
1. 20% Requirement: Objections must be submitted in writing to Erin at ehussey@eicc.info, and must be supported by a minimum of 8 (20%) Full Members.
2. Limited Scope: Objections can only be accepted for specific proposals. Qualified objections will result in a new "yes/no" ballot to reconsider the specific proposal (i.e., no new proposals or modifications can be accepted.)
3. Adoption of Objections: A 2/3 majority is required to overturn a prior vote.
Updated Code Review Timeline:
- Jan. 9: Vote deadline (5 PM PST).
- Jan. 11: Results communicated to members.
- Jan. 27: Deadline to submit objections.

New Work Group Leaders
New leaders have been established for two EICC workgroups. The VAP Work Group will be led by Balan Shanmuganathan (Seagate) and Mike McDonnell (Intel). The group is working to make the Validated Audit Process faster, easier, and more affordable for members. Thanks to Steve Viera (intel) and Jennifer Williams (Foxconn) for leading the VAP Work Group.
The Process & Tools Governance Work Group has added a third leader. Mike McDonnell (Intel) will join co-leaders Hong Ling (Cisco) and Felipe Rodriguez (Hitachi). The group ensures that all processes, such as the SAQ and RA3, are up to date. It also prioritizes enhancements to the EICC-ON system.
Both groups will provide updates on their work at the EICC Winter Membership Meeting.
