Deadline for comments/submissions for March 2006 Plenary



Folks,

As discussed in the just concluded Interim session at Hawaii, to give 
more time for comment resolution, the deadline for comment submission 
would be earlier than we have typically had.

Following are the deadlines for the March 2006 Plenary:

New draft P802-21-D00-05.pdf made available at the latest by January 30, 
2006.

Comments/submissions deadline: February 10, 2006 midnight EST

Merged comments file uploaded: on February 11, 2006

Reply comments due: February 17, 2006

We will have the following two Comment Resolution adhocs before the 
March 2006 Plenary session:

  - February 21, 2006; 9-11 am EST
  - February 28, 2006; 9-11 am EST

IMPORTANT: Please note that this process would be more effective if 
"reply comments" are submitted well in time.


Most of the following procedures for submitting comments have been 
discussed in previous f2f meetings as well as have been followed for the 
previous comment resolutions. Just to recap:

1. If you are submitting comments for the first time then get the
"commentary" software  from the following directory:
	http://www.ieee802.org/21/Commentary
Else you should have the software already downloaded.

2. Submit comments on the current draft version P802-21-D00-05.pdf

The following fields need to be filled for every comment submitted:
  - Document under Review
  - Comment Submitted by (First Name, Last Name)
  - Comment Date
  - Comment
  - Starting Page#
  - Starting Line#
  - Fig/Table# (if applicable)
  - Section#
  - Suggested Remedy

3. All contributions should be in the form of a FileMaker file with
extension ".USR" with the file name format as D00-05_Lastname_Firstname.USR.

4. Once the comments deadline has passed, a consolidated comment file
would be uploaded. Read the comments using the commentary software and
if you want to respond to any comment, check the "Marked" box at the top
of that record. Then fill out the following fields:

  - Proposed Resolution
  - Recommendation
  - Recommendation by
  - Reason for Recommendation

5. When you are finished entering replies, look under Scripts and choose
"Find Marked Records". This will find the records for which you checked
the "Marked" box.

6. Under Scripts, choose "Export Clause Editor's Proposals". This will
only export the marked records that one wanted to reply to. Choose the
file type "FileMaker Pro Runtime Files". Enter a file name of the form
"D00-05_reply_Lastname_Firstname.USR".

Best Regards,
