Do Not Approve,
but will if the following issues are clarified:
Obviously these items are not a problem if the number of proposals is modest. But with a high number of proposals, we'll certainly run out of time in the meetings (it is not fair if the chair don't allocate equal opportunities like time for all proposals). My opinion is, that improvements & mergers shall be highly encouraged especially if they smoothen the process or helps in finding a compromise. Nevertheless, attempts to slow down the convergence through additional proposals (consuming time to process as well as probably postponing decisions) should be somehow discouraged or restricted. The schedule is anyhow tight, and should be to meet the objectives of a standard in a foreseen future ... |

| Chris Cant | Telegen Ltd. (Floware Ltd.) | x | The timeline is challenging but not absurd, and nothing is to be gained by any relaxation at this stage. As with all plans it may need to be adapted to meet constraints encountered during the development process and timescales should not be held sacrosanct if the quality of the standard is at risk. On the other hand no delays to planned dates should be accepted without very good reason. | ||

The turn-around time from comment resolution at a meeting to starting a letter ballot (e.g., session #8) may be too fast (same day) because the editor will need a couple days to fully integrate the comments, fix formatting, etc. and then send the draft out. But a couple days change here and there won't change the overall schedule. The proposed work during the holidays (12/24, 1/5) in session number 5 might not happen, but that shouldn't be a big problem. Session #5 will probably have much discussion around the MAC/PHY proposals. It seems to me that much work has to happen between session #6 and 7: The invited proposals may need the help of editor(s) to unify the look-and-feel of the documents to make them easy to compare. Also, simulation/measurement results that allow for apples-to-apples comparison of the proposals should be available at session #7. Thus, session #7 seems the most "risky" part of the schedule to me. |
