Dear Roger:

I am pleased to inform you that P802.16 was approved as a new standard by
the IEEE-SA Standards Board on 6 December 2001.  A copy of the document
will be forwarded to the Standards Publications Department.  The editor
assigned to work on the project will contact you.

All IEEE standards shall be updated within five years of the date of
publication.  If the standard is not revised, reaffirmed, or withdrawn
within five years, the sponsor will be notified that it will be submitted
to the Standards Board for administrative withdrawal.

It should be noted that any negative balloters have the right to appeal.
