Matt,

Thank you for your message.  I would be happy to work with Mark and Carl
to agree on exact wording for the modification to that slide.  As you
noted,
it is ambiguous -- it was not intended to give this erroneous
interpretation.
We will forward you that modified slide ASAP.

Best regards,

Joanne

All,

I have reviewed the slides, and I agree with Carl and Bill that even
with slide 16, there is still the implication that iBurst is based on
802.20 stands.  At least that is my reading.  I feel the working on
slide 16 is pretty ambiguous and am less concerned with making changes
on that slide, though its clarity could certainly be improved.

While the spoken words Joanne used may have clarified things, readers
have no access to those words after the fact.  So I think it is
important that correction be made.  Clearly Joanne has already agreed to
such correction.  So for the near term I feel we should consider this
issue adequately addressed.

As to the matter of exact wording, I feel "the less cooks the better".
I would suggest that we ask Joanne, Carl, and Mark (since they are all
physically present) to set aside any personal differences and work out
an agreed wording between them using the comments on this reflector as
guidance.  It would be nice if they feed back what ever wording is
agreed upon to this reflector for our reference.

Regards,

Mat

All,

While Ms. Wilson is entitled to her opinions, slide 16 clearly implies
to me that iBurst is standards based on 802.20, and the last slide does
not, in my opinion, mitigate that implication.

Since in general it is only the printed material and/or slides, not the
words that were spoken, that survive a seminar/workshop/etc. in recorded
form, the accuracy of those printed materials and slides is of primary
importance.

Thanks,

wlq
