Re: stds-802-16: QoS: Service table

[jmollenauer <jmollenauer@TSAnet.com>]

[Notice: It is the policy of 802.16 to treat messages posted here as non-confidential.]

The current draft of the system requirements document (v.4) states in Section
2.2 that the standard must support variable length packets and should support
ATM and TDM.  The issue of what must be addressed by the standard (possibly as
implementation options) will likely come up in the course of discussing the QoS
table.
