Re: [802.3_1PPODL] Call for Presentations
All -
A reminder that presentations are due for the PoDL meeting on Friday 14 March, one week from now. We make progress in the PoDL group by members delivering presentations at the meetings, proposing text for the draft or exploring technical issues. As of today I have received just one submission, so we will be having a very short meeting in Beijing unless presentations are submitted in the next week.
See below for more information about presentations. In particular, I invite presentations on power supply noise behavior and PD voltage and current requirements; these topics will help us coordinate with the work the 1000Base-T1 group is doing now. Proposals for fast startup timing and PD classification are also welcome.
Please submit presentations or requests for presentation time to me at ddwelley@xxxxxxxxxx. If you plan to present something in Beijing but the presentation isn't finished, please drop me a quick note so I can allocate time in the schedule.
Thanks, and I'll see you all in Beijing -
Dave

In addition, we will be sharing meeting space with the 802.3bt 4PPoE group, and Chad and I will coordinate meeting times to minimize interference between the two groups and the 802.3bp 1000Base-T1 group. Each group will meet each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. When we determine which group will start in the morning, Chad and I will post notes to each reflector. Please check the reflector when you arrive in Beijing for any late-breaking news on meeting times and locations.

This happens by group members submitting "baseline proposal" presentations for draft specifications and the entire group discussing and voting on them. Progress is only made with presentations; if you have any input for the draft standard, please prepare a presentation with your proposals and bring it to the meeting. There are examples of typical presentations in other 802.3 group websites; in particular, the 802.3bp and bq groups have good presentation examples. In particular, I invite presentations on power supply noise behavior and PD voltage and current requirements; these topics will help us coordinate with the work the 1000Base-T1 group is doing now.

Please check to make sure your presentation conforms to the style guidelines found at http://www.ieee802.org/3/bu/public/presentproc.html. I will post all submissions by Sunday March 16th to the 802.3bu website at http://www.ieee802.org/3/bu/index.html. Note that the old 1PPoDL website has been archived and can be found at http://www.ieee802.org/3/1PPODL/index.html.

The role of editor requires a certain time commitment and a good command of written English, but is relatively straightforward and does not have any other significant requirements. In exchange, the editor has unprecedented access to the new spec and has their name forever enshrined in the 802.3 standards document. They also are excused from being secretary and can therefore leave the ringer on their phone enabled with impunity. If anyone is interested in the editor post or would like more information about the editor's role, please contact me at ddwelley@xxxxxxxxxx.
