IEEE 802 Study Group on BWA: Task Groups
On January 15, 1999, we voted to create four Task Groups and elected their Coordinators. These Task Groups and will exist on an "ad hoc" basis, and the leaders are appointed, only through our next set of meetings (the week of March 7-12, 1999 in Austin). At the time, the entire Study Group, unless renewed by the the 802 Executive Committee, will expire. Of course, we hope that the Executive Committee will accept our PAR and charter us as a standing Working Group.
