> 1. The Sponsor shall submit an electronic roster of participants in IEEE

> This list shall comprise, at a minimum, name, company, phone, fax, and
> email. The Sponsor may delegate this responsibility to its WG Chairs if it

> 2. The information will be entered into the IEEE-SA database.

> by 1 September of each year, as long as the project is active. Only those
> individuals listed on the rosters will be indemnified under IEEE rules.
> 4. Rosters may be used to disseminate standards development information
> or standards participation related information. These rosters will not be
> sold or used for any other purpose. If a Sponsor submits a roster
> designating specific names that should not receive IEEE-related
> information, those names will be used for indemnification purposes only,
> and will not receive any additional information.
> 5. This procedure will go into effect immediately.
