to a typo. The other submitted a number of editorial comments and 
technical changes. These have been posted:

The TG2 editorial team has been hard at work getting ahead of the 
comment resolution. Chair Phil Whitehead and Editor Paul Beastall 
will be working over the holiday weekend to complete the comment 
resolutions and get a recirculation package ready by Monday, in time 
to start a recirculation on Tuesday. The IEEE Balloting Center 
understands the schedule and is prepared to try and meet it. This is 
a very quick turnaround but, thanks to the prep work, it looks 
feasible. Furthermore, if the ballot group accepts the comment 
resolutions, P802.16.2 will remain on schedule to meet the May 4 
deadline for submission of the final draft to RevCom.

This has been, and continues to be, a great education. TG2 has borne 
the brunt of getting 802.16 up to speed in the IEEE process. The rest 
of use will benefit down the road.

Regards,

Roger
