Comments for July 2005 session
Dear all,
Initially, I'd like to mention that IEEE 802.11u will
try to review the 'one-proposal' as mentioned by David Hunter
at the IEEE 802.11 closing plenary in Cairns. We'll try to get
some initial comments to you by the San Francisco meeting.
Next, I think I would like to see some idea within IEEE 802.21
of some timelines for an initial letter ballot of the proposed
draft and some agreement amongst delegates of how this goal will
be achieved.
Now that one proposal has been produced, I feel that quite a
few formalities need to be set up, before proceeding with
further standardisation.
Perhaps, it would be great to discuss the following items
in San Francisco:
1) How will comments from external groups be handled? By one
technical editor, or by the whole group?
2) Will official liaisons be sent out to 802.11, .15, 16 etc
for formal reviews at some point, and has a deadline been
set for replies.
3) Will requirements for implementing the MIH be sent to media
specific groups (.11, .15, 3GPP etc). If so, who will prepare
them and what are the deadlines.
4) Will .21 create task groups to work on different areas
of the proposal.
5) Will a formal .21 policies and procedures document be produced
at some point.
I'm not really looking for specific answers at the moment, just
the feeling that these items will be discussed at the next meeting.
Kind regards
Stephen
