Re: [STDS-802-16] Results of IEEE P802.16-REVd Recirc #2



Vladimir,

If you mean the fact that the DL-MAP PHY synchronization field of the
OFDM section is empty now, then, there is a comment from Raja (comment
#410) that identifies the problem in DES (initialization of the IV of
the CBC) and tries to resolve it.

This may solve your problem.

Regards,
Itzik.

Roger and All,

I found a breach in REVd that makes impossible effective invocation of
DES
encryption.
I didn't submit it to Sponsor Ballot to avoid delay, but I see that
anyway
there are lot of other comments.
The question is whether I can submit the comment directly to BRC [as a
late
one].
I believe that fixing the problem is for benefit of everybody.

Thanks

Vladimir

The P802.16-REVd Recirc #2 balloting period has closed.

The good news is that we are down to one Disapprove voter (Nico van
Waes). He submitted one Technical Binding comment, which was a
reiteration of a previous comment.

The bad news is that we received a total of 171 comments.
        http://ieee802.org/16/docs/04/80216-04_30.zip

The following show the members of the Sponsor Ballot Group who
submitted comments, along with the number of comments:

Tal Kaitz                2
Itzik Kitroser          11
Yigal Leiba             44
Cor van de Water         3
Nico van Waes            1

I received additional comments from other individuals who do not
belong to the Sponsor Ballot Group:

Raja Banerjea            3
Changhoi Koo            68
Lalit Kotecha           14
Wonil Roh               25


We will now move on to an on-line comment resolution process in which
the members of the Ballot Resolution Committee will be the Members of
the IEEE 802.16 Working Group. I will provide details in a few days.
Expect the decision-making process to be quick.

For those of you who are wondering where this leaves us: we have met
the RevCom conditions for D5 to be approved as an IEEE standard on 24
June. If we reject all of these comments, no further recirculation
will be necessary. However, we also have the option to accept
comments, produce draft D6, open a third recirculation, and remove D5
from the June RevCom agenda.

Roger
