Re: Thank you for TG4b / 802.19 meeting

[Robert Poor <rpoor@xxxxxxxx>]

Steve:

I look forward to seeing the minutes.  In the meantime, I invite  
anyone in the group to give me early warning if we're headed off into  
the weeds.

I am puzzled, though.  My understanding was that if the CA document  
was made available with the next recirculation (and if the CA  
document itself passed muster) that that 802.19's requirements would  
be satisfied, and peace and coexistence would spread throughout the  
land.  Am I alone in this utopian vision?
