The IESG has received a request from the Protocol to Access WS database

WG (paws) to consider the following document:

- 'Protocol to Access White-Space (PAWS) Databases'

  <draft-ietf-paws-protocol-14.txt> as Proposed Standard

A prior Last Call was made for version -12 of this document. Comments

received during that discussion lead to extensive edits to the document,

which could benefit from a second review.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits

final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the

ietf@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2014-08-20. Exceptionally, comments may be

sent to iesg@xxxxxxxx instead. In either case, please retain the

beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract

   Portions of the radio spectrum that are allocated to licensees are

   available for non-interfering use.  This available spectrum is called

   "White Space."  Allowing secondary users access to available spectrum

   "unlocks" existing spectrum to maximize its utilization and to

   provide opportunities for innovation, resulting in greater overall

   spectrum utilization.

   One approach to managing spectrum sharing uses databases to report

   spectrum availability to devices.  To achieve interoperability among

   multiple devices and databases, a standardized protocol must be

   defined and implemented.  This document defines such a protocol, the

   "Protocol to Access White Space (PAWS) Databases".
