IEEE 802.3 Working Group
Voters, Observers, and Liaisons:
This is the announcement of
the electronic IEEE 802.3 Working Group ballot on P802.3an, 10GBASE-T. Remember that voting as well as
attendance is a requirement to maintain your 802.3 member (voter)
status.
Instructions for accessing
the draft, casting your ballot and submitting comments follow this
announcement. As two 802.3 WG
ballots are now running in parallel (P802.3aq,
10GBASE-LRM is already open), proper subject lines on ballots and
comments are essential for your ballot and comments to be
accepted.
The project is an amendment
to IEEE Std 802.3. IEEE Std
802.3-2002 including its five amendments is the current base document. P802.3REVam is a revision that merges
the amendments into 802.3-2002 as well as including maintenance changes and
changes made during the revision process.
Because approval of P802.3REVam is expected prior to Sponsor ballot on
this project, changes to the base document are written against P802.3REVam
rather than IEEE Std 802.3-2002.
