Study Group Participants,
We made a lot of progress at the last meeting of the Next Generation BASE-T Study Group in January in Phoenix. We are on the agenda in the closing plenary in Orlando to consider our Objectives, 5C and PAR. These need to be approved with
a 75% vote by the 802.3, and later by the 802.3 Exec Committee (on Friday), after which NesCom and SASB will consider, and a Task Force can be formed. Achieving the 75% cannot be taken for granted, please be sure to plan to stay until the close of the plenary
on Thursday 3/21.
The plenary will be held the week of March 18th in Orlando. Details are at
http://802world.org/plenary/. Our Study group will meet on Tuesday March 19th and Wednesday March 20th. We are soliciting materials that are consistent with the charter of the Study Group, which
explore and/or refine the topics covered in our objectives, as well as any related content. Once we achieve the status of being a Task Force we can begin to consider presentation which will lead to a baseline specification.
Comments from other organizations on our PAR and 5 Criteria are due by Tuesday of that week at 5pm, with our response due 24 hours later. The SG will meet on Wednesday to consider and approve the responses to any questions we receive.
Requests for presentation time must be made before the second Friday preceding the meeting. For the March Plenary meeting, requests for presentation time shall be made to me at
billw@xxxxxxxxxxxx and must be made by midnight AOE on March 8, 2012.
