stds-802-16: Call for Reply Comments on Letter Ballot #13 (P802.16-REVd/D1)
CALL FOR REPLY COMMENTS ON LETTER BALLOT #13
IEEE 802.16 Working Group Letter Ballot #13 closed on 31 October; see:
http://ieee802.org/16/arc/802-16list2/msg01044.html
That message, of 1 November, announces a Call for Reply Comments
until 9 November and says a more formal announcement will be issued
"soon". This is the formal announcement (issued not as soon as I had
planned!).
IEEE 802.16 is now in the process of soliciting and collecting
responses to the Letter Balltt #13 comments in IEEE 802.16-03/51
<http://ieee802.org/16/docs/03/80216-03_51.zip>.
Replies are due by Sunday, 9 November at 8 pm Albuquerque time.
To create and submit reply comments:
(1) Obtain Commentary <http://ieee802.org/16/docs/Commentary>.
(2) Unzip the Comment Report to get a ".USR" file, which will open in
Commentary.
(3) Read the comments in Commentary. When you want to respond to a
comment, check the "Marked" at the top of that record. Then fill out
the following fields:
Recommendation:
Proposed Resolution:
Reason for Recommendation:
You are justified in recommending rejection on grounds of
incompleteness or lack of a specific change request.
(4) When you are finished entering replies, look under Scripts and
choose "Find Marked Records". This will find the records for which
you checked the "Marked" box.
(5) Put your name in the "Recommendation by" field of each reply {for
a quick method, see Appendix at the end of this note.}
(6) Under Scripts, choose "Export Clause Editor's Proposals". Choose
the file type "FileMaker Pro Runtime Files". Enter a file name of the
form "LB13_reply_Name.USR", where "Name" is your name.
(7) Email the exported file as an attachment to
<mailto:ballot16d@wirelessman.org>.
(8) Don't forget the deadline.
(9) The creator of each original comment will be offered the
opportunity to generate a draft comment resolution and to lead the
comment resolution during discussion in the session (or appoint an
alternative person to do so).

Appendix: Using "Replace" in Commentary
You can replace everything in a particular field over a batch of
records. For example, clause editors might not want to type their
name in the the "Recommendation by" field each time. Here is a
solution to the problem illustrating the use of "Replace":
*Finish entering your data.
*Find the batch of records in which you want to replace a field.
*In browse mode, and put the cursor in the "Recommendation by" field.
*Under "Records", choose "Replace".
*Choose "Replace with calculated result".
*In the box, write, in quotation marks, your name. Click "OK".
*Click "Replace".
