[mailto:r.b.marks@ieee.org] The Call for Comments regarding the consolidation
P802.16Rev2/D0 has closed. Nearly all of the 255 comments were generated by the editorial review
team that was chaired by Itzik Kitroser and included
Phillip Barber, Yaghoobi Hassan, Jon Labs, Ron Murias,
and Brian Shim. Thanks to Itzik and his team! [I've listed the members of
the editorial review team who submitted comments; Itzik or Jon will know if I
missed anyone.] Itzik has reported that five of the comments were
identified as technical, meaning that, even though an editorial problem has
been identified, the proposed solution has technical implications. Itzik or Jon
will provide a more detailed report. The comments are here: This note is a Call for Reply Comments, with a deadline of Monday
7 May, noon The Commentary file will open to the view in which you can
begin entering reply comments. Use the "Submit Reply Comments"
tab in the upper right corner to export your replies to a file
for uploading, per the embedded instructions. Roger
This note is a Call for Comments regarding P802.16Rev2/D0: <http://ieee802.org/16/pubs/80216Rev2.html>. Please consider the following points: *Comments are limited to those that address the accuracy of the merger
of the underlying standards in the consolidation. Comments should be marked as
"Technical" if they have technical implications. Otherwise, they
should be marked as "Editorial". *Please review the editor's comments on the consolidation leading to
P802.16Rev2/D0: to understand the key editorial issues that arose in the consolidation,
and to understand the markings the editor has used in the consolidation to
highlight questions and remarks. *Please review the editor's charts reflecting the clause,
figure, table, and equation renumbering that took place as a result of the
consolidation: Note that the spreadsheet includes four worksheets. *Prepare comments in Commentary 2 (.cmtb) format. Identify the ballot
ID as "26". [LB#26 has not yet begun, but this work is pre-LB#26; the
administration is a little easier if we start using that number now.] *Upload comments to <http://lb26.wirelessman.org>. *Comments will be considered by the Maintenance Task Group at Session
#49. *The deadline is 2 May 2007 AOE: Contact me with any questions. Roger
Dear 802.16 People, As you know, the 802.16 revision PAR, approved on 22 March, authorizes
the WG to develop a draft revision that "will consolidate IEEE Standards
802.16-2004, 802.16e-2005, 802.16-2004/Cor1-2005, and 802.16f-2005 (and
possibly 802.16g and 802.16i, if completed in time), incorporating the
P802.16-2004/Cor2 draft." As the first step in the process, I have been coordinating with IEEE
professional staff over the past few months to develop an editorial
consolidation of IEEE Standards 802.16-2004, 802.16e-2005,
802.16-2004/Cor1-2005, and 802.16f-2005. That consolidation is now complete. The official name for the PAR, following IEEE-SA conventions, is
"P802.16". However, that's not a practical name, since it will apply
to every revision we do. Therefore, we will label the drafts with the
unofficial name "P802.16Rev2" to indicate that we are working toward
the second revision of IEEE Std 802.16. (The first revision was IEEE Std
802.16-2004, following the original version IEEE Std 802.16-2001). I have created a new web page for posting P802.16Rev2 drafts: I have posted the editor's consolidation as "D0". It is no an
official WG draft, since it has not been approved as a draft by the WG. The
document includes a number of comments and questions inserted by our
professional editor. I will soon be announcing a Call for Comments for the review of the
document. Comments, in Commentary format, will be considered by the
Maintenance Task Group at Session #49. The review serves only to address
editorial questions regarding the accuracy of the merger of the standards. In parallel, a review team, chaired by Itzik Kitroser, will be
reviewing the document in detail, with a volunteer assigned to review every
part of the consolidation. Their comments will also be considered at Session
#49. I'm happy to say that Joe Schumacher has agreed to serve as Chief
Technical Editor of the P802.16Rev2 project. Roger Begin forwarded message:
