RE: [802SEC] Clause 19 Report regarding P802.21/D13 to RevCom
Dear Andrew,
The 802.11v draft (currently in WG LB <75% Approval rate) is not referenced in 802.21 because it is not required for 802.21 implementation. As for 802.11u, we worked closely with that group and 802.11u is required for 802.21 implementation.
Your colleague (on whose behalf you seem to be filing comments) pointed to us: "802.21 may as well reference a newspaper clipping rather than reference unapproved IEEE drafts". This influenced the 802.21 WG reasoning in SB comment resolution.
I have checked with the WG Editor and few other people in WG. There is strong consensus *NOT* to reference 802.11v from our draft in the way you have described. However we will discuss this further during our Sept WG meeting. You are welcome to come to 802.21 and express your views. It seems highly unlikely at this point that 802.21 WG will agree to this change.
Kind Regards
-Vivek

G'day all
I have reviewed the responses to my comments in the recent 802.21
recirculation SB. I believe that the conditions of the Conditional
Approval have NOT been satisfied. I object to sending the draft to
RevCom. I request that the draft be recirculated and the draft be
removed from the RevCom agenda.
In particular I refer to comment #4.
* In the previous ballot, I requested a change
* That request was responded to in a way that did not address the issue
raised in the comment
* In the most recent ballot, I requested the same change
* The WG responded in a completely different way compared to the
previous ballot
* Sending the draft to RevCom at this time denies me the right to reply
to their response
In the next Sponsor Ballot I will comment
* The basis of rejecting my comment appears to be that 802.11v is not
yet a standard
* On this basis anything in the draft related to 802.11u (there is a lot
of material) must also be removed because 802.11u is not yet a standard
* I am not advocating the 802.11u material be removed
* I am requesting that my requested change is considered on its merits
and not rejected based on fallacious and inconsistent arguments

Hi Vivek,
In review of the Tony Jeffree 1/2 [
https://mentor.ieee.org/802.21/file/08/21-08-0249-00-0000-p802-21-to-rev
com.ppt#8
] I note that Tony is a Disapprove voter and has marked this comment as
Must Be Satisfied. I further note that the response doesn't state that
the comment is out of scope due to being related to unchanged text - nor
does it state that the comment is a restatement of a previous comment -
instead the response simply provides a rebuttal. Based on this you
appear to me to be treating this comment as a new valid Disapprove
comments - is this correct ?
I did try to find the comments and response from the previous
recirculations on the IEEE 802.21 web site but was unable to find them
so I'm unable to see what comment #1 on recirculation #4 stated.
Best regards,
David
