[802.3_B400G] Announcement - - IEEE P802.3dj Task Force Review - D1.2



All -

For this Task Force Review we will be following the same approach used with the second Task Force Review (D1.1).  The Task Force Review process will be reviewed with each draft recirculation and may be modified as deemed necessary by the Task Force leadership.

Given the size of the document and the amount of new technical specifications being developed for the first time within IEEE P802.3dj, the initial Task Force reviews will be different from prior Task Force reviews.  In the interest of full transparency, the leadership wants the Task Force to understand how the Task Force review of D1.2 will proceed.

Please take a moment to review the following-

·       The third Task Force Review will be 15 days, starting today, Tuesday, 08 October 2024, and closes on Wednesday 23 October 2024, AoE.

·       The scope of the review will be the entire draft.  Please note that this is the last task force review where the scope will be the entire draft.   

·       All submitted technical comments may not be considered with D1.2.   For D1.1, the technical comments not closed may be found at https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D1p1/8023dj_D1p1_comments_not_closed_id.pdf.   Individuals may wish to review these comments to consider whether they need to be resubmitted.

·       The priority for comments will be determined by the Task Force Leadership and Editorial Team.  First priority will be given to “Big Ticket” items, which will be followed up with consideration of other comments that may be dependent upon resolution of “Big Ticket” items. 

·       Formal submission of editorial comments is discouraged.  Any editorial comments that are formally submitted during the Task Force review will be addressed at the discretion of the editorial team.

·       Individuals wishing to submit editorial comments informally may do so by submitting a marked-up pdf document to mbrown8023@xxxxxxxxx.   Please note that these comments will not be tracked.

·       Finally, Individuals are reminded to review “IEEE SA Balloting and Comment Resolution Process Guidelines” (https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/import/governance/revcom/guidelines.pdf).

At the request of the Chair, the Task Force Chief Editor has identified the following key areas to highlight to the Task Force

·       New Annex 180A defining breakout on optical connectors

·       New Annex 185A defining the coherent TQM test methodology

·       Annex 184A updated with test vectors

·       Clause 186 addition of many new subclauses

·       Annex 174A major updates to error ratio test methodologies and related updates in the PMD clauses (178 through 183, 185, 187) and AUI annexes (176C, 176D).

·       Furthermore, despite spectacular progress at the September Interim, there are still lots of TBDs to close, especially in the electrical clauses and annexes.
