Re: [STDS-802-11] TGbh Motions

Graham,

 

                Yes, I misspoke. It was of course a straw poll that was taken in Bangkok. Not that I’m expecting a radically different answer from a motion. Even if the straw poll in Bangkok had been a motion (and we roughly seem to interpret straw polls that way), we still managed to follow that up with abject failure to agree upon any of the several solutions that were and have been presented. I’m not sure how “actioning” the TG will break us out of the cycle of coming up short when we get down picking solutions. That said, I have no objection to running the motions and I look forward to concrete decisions being made.

Peter,

Just a clarification.  You questioned my suggested Motion #1 “given the motion in Bangkok”.  That was in fact only a Straw Poll but yes, the result was 17/4.  However, at the telecon last week we had effectively the same straw poll and the result was 12/9.  So what I was seeking to do was to motion it so as to get a definitive answer.  If it passed (as per Bangkok) then the TG is actioned to find solution(s),  If it failed (effectively as per telecon), then the matter is dropped and we pass on to the other questions.

 

Thanks

Graham

Mark,

I agree with Mike’s proposals.  See if you/we can come up with suitable words.

Thanks all,

 

I would recommend that you create a motion ( or multiple) that establishes consensus on whether anything needs to be added to the current draft. (I guess you could be specific of proposals that have not reached the threshold to be added).

 

Based on that result, you could run a further motion on whether the current draft is sufficient to go to LB. (or even run the LB motion)

 

If neither of the above motions achieve consensus, you could run motions to disband the TG and move the work to TGbi (I would assume).

 

I don't think it's worthwhile to discuss the PAR at this point - just adds further complexity. If the TG feels strongly that the PAR needs to change, then do the work on the PAR - but decide on the path first. (given the group has been discussing this for more than 2 yrs now)

 

Cheers,

 

Mike

Graham,

 

                Motion #1 strikes me as being very close in meaning to “do you want to see support for pre-association use cases in the TGbh draft?” I mean it basically encapsulates all of the schemes that have been raised to cover pre-association use cases. So, I’d expect motion #1 to pass. We already know that to be the case given the motion in Bangkok regarding support for pre-association use cases. Thus, I don’t see much gained by running motion #1. Further, we’ve seen every single individual pre-association scheme shot down for lack of sufficient support. What are we gaining by repeatedly running this motion in various forms? I expect we’ll get a result of “yes, we want at least one of those schemes in the draft” because, hey, the motion has something for everyone, so everyone will vote in the affirmative in the hopes of getting their favorite scheme into the draft. Then when we get down to brass tacks and try to choose which scheme it will be, none will gain the 75% needed to be selected.

 

                I share your frustration at our progress, but I don’t think motion #1 will lead to the other three motions at all. Then we’re in the same boat as we have been for months.

 

                                Kind regards,

                                -Peter

Hi Mark,

Further to the meeting today, my suggestions for Motions would be as follows:

 

First just check if we could proceed.

Either

1 – “At least one other scheme should be added to the TGbh draft?”

e.g., one or more of the following schemes should be included in the Draft

·         SMA

·         MAAD

·         IRM

·         Non-encrypted ID in IE (AP allocates)

·         Non-encrypted ID in IE (STA allocates )

  • IRMA
  • RRCM
  • ID encoding”

 

If #1 fails, then we are faced with the single scheme as per Draft 0.2.  So now we need to address the PAR issue

 

2 – “Do you agree that draft 0.2 satisfies the TGbh PAR?

 

If fails, then

 

3 – “Should the TGbh PAR be amended?  

 

If that fails then

 

4 – “Should TGbh be disbanded?

 

If that fails, I don’t know what else to motion.

 

Graham
