Revised Draft 3.0a for 802.17 WG Review
---------------------------------------
Dear IEEE 802.17 Working Group Member:
A revised version of IEEE P802.17 (Resilient Packet Ring), Draft 3.0a,
otherwise known as:
Information Technology - Telecommunications and information exchange between
systems - Local & Metropolitan Area Networks - Specific requirements -
Resilient Packet Ring Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications
is available for review. Note that the review period opened on Tuesday,
10 February 2004 at 9.00 PM Pacific Time and will continue to close on
Monday, 16 February 2004 at 11:00 PM Pacific Time.
The following changes were made between the original D3.0a draft and this
revised version:
- updates to Clauses 12, 13 and Annex D. There was not sufficient
time to implement all of the comment resolutions for the OAM
section. The revised draft contains all of the updates. In addition,
the cross-references in the MIB tables have been updated.
- updates to Clause 11. Some bugs and typographical errors were
found after initial review. These have been fixed.
- minor typographical updates to the introductory matter.
THIS IS NOT A BALLOT OR COMMENT PERIOD. This review period is to enable WG
members to review the proposed draft (D3.0a) that will go out to Sponsor
Ballot recirculation as D3.1. A conference call will be held on the 17th
of February to discuss any feedback or issues. PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT BALLOTS
OR COMMENTS. Instead, please attend the conference call interim meeting and
provide your feedback.
No changes to the existing Sponsor Ballot status will occur as a consequence
of this review.
