Colleagues,
     
    There is only one more day until the close of the 
    first round of comments
    tomorrow (April 23rd), and I have so far received 
    only one batch of 20
    comments. Please get your comments in! While the 
    actual comment
    period closes on April 28, publication of the first 
    round of comments will
    allow WG members to identify and work on problem 
    areas (and also
    submit proposed resolutions to comments, saving 
    time during the
    meeting).
     
    Also, in the general guidelines on commenting that 
    I'd sent out last Friday,
    I 
    forgot to mention one additional point: please do not comment on 
    editor's
    notes. Editor's notes are intended to allow the 
    editor to point out issues or
    open areas to the WG, or to identify work in 
    progress (so that the WG
    need not waste its time trying to follow a moving 
    target); they do not qualify
    as 
    approved draft text and may appear and disappear at the discretion 
    of
    the editor. They will all be removed before the 
    standard goes to RevCom -
    indeed, I expect them to be removed before we go to 
    Sponsor Ballot. You
    may reference specific editor's notes when you make 
    comments, but
    please don't make comments on the text contained 
    within the editor's
    notes.
     
    Best regards,
     
    - 
    Tom Alexander
    Chief Editor, P802.17
