[Discussion Groups] DG Decision Making All decisions of a DG shall be reached by Consensus of the Participants. [Work Groups] 
WG Decision Making Except in those cases required by these Operating Procedures or the Bylaws of the Organization, the WG shall seek to reach all decisions by Consensus. When no Consensus can be reached in a timely manner, at the Chair’s discretion an approval vote of a majority of Participants may be utilized to reach a decision (except in those cases where the LC has specified a different voting requirement). All Participants present at a WG meeting are voting members of the WG. For the purpose of maintaining a reasonable ability to achieve Quorum, any Participant in a WG who fails to attend two consecutive meetings of the WG may, at the discretion of the Chair, be re-classified as a non-voting member. Voting member status may be reacquired by attending a meeting of the WG. In the case of an electronic vote of the WG, if the electronic vote is initiated while a Participant is in non-voting status, the Participant may not vote in that electronic vote.
