Re: [802.21] Availability of latest draft
Stefano,
Please look at the same minutes you mention and look at section 4.6 "New
or Unfinished Business"
This question was brought up on the floor at that time. After the
discussion on the pros and cons to secure the WG draft, a straw poll was
conducted. The results were unanimous in favor of securing the draft.
Based on the unanimity of the sentiment a decision was taken to place
the draft in the password protected area.
Let me know if you still have any questions.

In a previous e-mail I asked why the latest version of the draft is not yet available on the server, and you mentioned we decided at the last meeting to store the document in a password-protected area of the server. Since I did not recall such decision, I took a look at the minutes. In document 21-05-0334-01-0000-802_MIHS_minutes_2005_07_21.doc containing the minutes of July 21, it says in section 3.1.5:
