RE: [802.21] About 3GPP SAE contribution



The use of the 802.21 was not about the 3GPP contribution. What was being discussed was the liaison letter to FMCA. The earlier wording might have been misinterpreted by others that there is some direct liaison setup to 3GPP. 

I agree that last response from 3GPP SA was not favorable to 802.21 WG liaisons. I respect this contribution is shared and discussed. I only wish we had enough time to discuss further and expand on the text, so that more companies could have added their name as contributors. As the chair mentioned we can setup some time in May. But, unfortunately this is after the 3GPP meeting.

Srini

If I remember it right, in the liaison letter to 802.21 3GPP has already made very clear that it won't be dealing with any "official 802.21 contributions". So any contributions sent to 3GPP, regardless it mentions 802.21 or not, regardless it's from a 802.21 participant or not, will be automatically treated as "individual company" 
contributions. So, I don't see anything 802.21 should be worried here.

Besides, there is nowhere in Vivek's document indicating this is an official 802.21 proposal (802.21 is no even mentioned). And my understanding is that the authors' decision to share this document with the group and asking for comments and feedback here is out of courtesy - they are not required to do it.

Technically I think the proposal is in the right direction.
