Nomenclature poll...




Assuming that we go with 10GBASE- instead of 10kBASE-, which suffix
structure does everyone prefer:
1)	<wavelength> <coding scheme> <# of wavelengths>, or
2)	<wavelength> <# of wavelengths> <coding scheme>

An example of #1 would be: 10GBASE-SX for 850nm 64b/66b Serial, and
10GBASE-LW4 for 1310nm SONET compatible WDM.

An example of #2 would be: 10GBASE-SX for 850nm 64b/66b Serial, and
10GBASE-L4W for 1310nm SONET compatible WDM.


As a note, no matter which one we choose, we are still dealing with a large
list of port types.

Thanks,
Brad
