For CID 7219 should we do,A) Nothing (Reject)B) Accept changes changes in 24/689r4 for CID 7219
--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Task Group M Technical Reflector ---Hi, Mark,
I appreciate your position. But, I still disagree. Yes, you have identified a specific (and I think valid) problem. But, the solution you suggest is, to my eye, putting “lipstick on a pig” and we are only hiding what is a much bigger problem. In fact, you may be convincing some readers that pigs actually have lips by doing so, and making the exiting confusion even worse.
I still think it is better to do nothing, if we can’t figure out/take the time to really correct this mess “properly”, than to take even a baby step down the path of making it even more confusing.

I am strongly opposed to doing nothing. At the very least 7218
explicitly identifies a specific problem and a specific solution,
and should be effected.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi, Dave.
Sorry, but no, I’m not okay with these changes. I think we’re just making things worse. I’d rather do nothing. And, let’s take a step back sometime later and really re-do this to be clear.
IMHO. But, it is a group decision.

Mark H.,
Are you ok with Mark R's suggested change to L-6? (pasted back in again below) If yes, I'll go ahead and make the change and also for L-5 and L-7. But I want to avoid updating the visio's and then finding out someone wants another change to the visio. Someone mentioned adding circles. But imho, adding circles will make things more messy and more confusing.
On CID's 7218 & 7219, I agree with Mark R's original comment. But I didn't have any issue with the drawings.

I agree, the comments did not ask for such a big “fix”, but to make the minor tweaks in the direction requested without going further to clarify what these updated labels are pointing to, in my mind, makes things worse. So, I’d rather do nothing, or do the bigger change(s). My personal opinion (we can see what the group thinks, if we can’t reach agreement off-line).

Would you agree that discussing the line thickness, etc goes beyond CIDs 7218 & 7219?

I also note that in some of the Annex L figures the Traffic Indicator field is described as Transmitted BSSID group addressed traffic indication/AID 0 and Nontransmitted BSSID group addressed traffic indication though some of the figures aren't searchable (grrr )
Use consistent wording and make figures searchable

Hello Abhi,
Where is the behaviour (as opposed to the encoding/format) for the
NonTxBSS ID bits specified?
[I have a separate comment about this for the vanilla Traffic Indicator
field, 7217.)
Also, is there a difference between "NonTxBSS ID" and "NonTxBSSID"
(the latter in "NonTxBSSID Profiles")?
> I would suggest (at least for L4 and L5) to keep the existing text à Nontransmitted BSSID group addressed traffic indication.
I could probably live with the figure saying "Nontransmitted BSSID group addressed traffic indicator"
(specifically lowercase "traffic indicator" so that it can be found when
people search for information on "Traffic Indicator").
> NOTE, we need to remove the hyphen (-) in the term nontransmitted BSSID.
Where do you see a hyphen?
> [MarkH is] becoming more and more convinced by these examples that if we mean to be referencing just one “cell” (one bit) in these figures, we can’t point to that bit with a (thin) line, nor with an arrow, and have it be understood. I think the heavy box around the 15 bits for Non-TX BSS IDs in the figure just below is clear. But, the other items (“Traffic Indicator”, “Bitmap Offset” “Bitmap Control”, “AID 0”, and similar, are not at all clear. I think we need a box, or a circle, or something like that, around the “cells” that we are referencing with these pointers.
I'm fine with having thick boxes for all the things pointed to by
arrows or lines, I think.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi All,
In case of multiple BSSID set, each bit position 1 thru 2^n-1 in the partial virtual bitmap of the TIM IE is reserved to indicate buffered group addressed frames at an AP corresponding to a nontransmitted BSSID whose index matches the value between 1 thru 2^n-1. Please see pg 904 of REVme D5.0 for details. On the same page, we define the term NonTxBSS ID. However, that term is not used anywhere else in the spec. As a result, it can be confusing to someone who doesn’t have the necessary background to corelate the term ‘NonTxBSS ID’ in Annex L with group addressed traffic indication for an AP corresponding to a nonTxBSSID.
I would suggest (at least for L4 and L5) to keep the existing text à Nontransmitted BSSID group addressed traffic indication. NOTE, we need to remove the hyphen (-) in the term nontransmitted BSSID.
Regards,
Abhi

Hello Dave,
As regards Traffic Indicator/AID 0, I suggest something like this (I have no
idea why the resolution is so poor):
The AID 0/16/24/32/39 bits get their own label and arrow,
and separately the Traffic Indicator, Bitmap Control and
Partial Virtual Bitmap fields get their own lines/braces.
If I were doing this in Visio I'd probably move the AID 0
label down so the Traffic Indicator label can have a horizontal
line to its bit.
[I don't understand NonTxBSS IDs well enough to say whether
having a line to a polygon of bits is good for those.]
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark R.,
We had some discussion regarding L-5, L-6 and L-7 regarding "Traffic Indicator/AID 0".
Did you want "Traffic Indicator/AID 0" changed? If yes, please provide a change suggestion.
With a link to 24/689r2 this time.

Hi Edward,
Thanks for the guidance. See the posted submission,
The last sheet has an embedded zip file which contains,
- visio files of the marked up images
- visio files of the new images
- emf files of marked up images

Let me know if this is what is expected.

Dear Dave,
Thanks a lot! Understanding that the submissions are typically in Word format, may I know if you have some bandwidth to update these 12 VIsios and attach them in your contribution? As Mark mentioned that the contents of some of the figures may not be searchable, I speculate that we may need to update the Visios and generate them to emf again.

All wise and powerful editor Edward, let me know how you'd like me to handle CIDs 7218 and 7219.
With CID 7218,
There are 8 text instances in Annex L that should have the "Group Addressed" stricken. For instance,
Group AddressedTraffic Indicator
Also the following figures should likewise have the "Group Addressed" stricken.
L-8, L-9, L-10, L-11, L-12, L-13, L-14 & L-15.
With CID 7219,
The following figures should have "Nontransmitted BSSID group addressed traffic indication" changed to "NonTxBSS ID". This is where "NonTxBSS ID" is from clause 9.4.2.5.1.
L-4, L-5, L-6 & L-7.
I do have Visio on my laptop. But I wasn't sure how you'd like me to handle since the submissions are typically in Word format.
