Re: [802.3_NGEPON] 08/27/15 NG-EPON Study Group meeting notes



A few comments on the wording

 

·         “Provide physical layer specifications operating over a single SMF strand and supporting” makes it sound as if the said specifications operate over SMF, which is clearly not the intent. I would suggest the following wording instead: “Provide physical layer specifications for operation over a single SMF strand and supporting”

·         “MAC data rate” is repeated in three 2nfd level bullets. Suggest to change “supporting” to “supporting the MAC data rate of:” and strike ‘MAC data rate of’ in three 2nd level bullets

·         “Provide an extensible architecture that will support future higher MAC data rates of at least 100 Gb/s” – we do not “provide” architecture, but rather define it in the spec. There is also no need to state “higher” since it is  implied by 100 Gb/s target already.  Suggest to reword as follows: “Define an extensible architecture to support future MAC data rates of at least 100 Gb/s”

IEEE 802.3 NG-EPON Study Group Work Items and Socialization

Meeting Start:

Meeting End:

·         Review of Guidelines for IEEE-SA meetings.

·         https://development.standards.ieee.org/myproject/Public/mytools/mob/preparslides.pdf

·         Has anyone not seen these Guidelines? Everyone has seen the guidelines

·         CSD/PAR/Objectives timeline

·         CSD and PAR approved by EC only at a plenary.

·         David must circulate CSD and PAR 30 days in advance of plenary (EC requirement)

·         CSD, PAR, and Objectives also announced by David, 30 days in advance, to 802.3 working group

·         Comments received by 18h30 Tuesday, replies by 18h30 Wednesday,

·         Is there a pre-submission requirement? Yes

·         Can we make decisions early in plenary, and then present at closing plenary? No

·         Can we vote during the weekly meetings? No voting

·         What does this mean?

·         If we don’t get approval in November, we have to wait until March

·         To attempt approval in November, we must agree (via Study Group vote) at Interim in Florida

·         Changes can be added during the motion

·         Can we call a meeting with 30 day notice, but does the meeting need to be face to face in order to vote?

·         Still need to have the material to back up the objectives and CSD. Contributions do not have to be made during the Study Group phase – we can reference previous material from ICAID and CFI activities. Could use some contributions on Economic Feasibility.

·         Have to submit Objectives, CSD, and PAR by Oct 9.

·         Group believes it is possible to meet this deadline.

·         Study Group Objectives

·         Good progress – only one more TBD item related to a coexistence objective

·         See R06 located here:

·         https://owncloud.cablelabs.com/public.php?service=files&t=4951cd9a35045bade1c1b0729eecaac0

·          

·         Call for Contributions

·         First Study Group meeting is:

·         September 14-15, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm

·         Contribution deadline: September 4, 2015 AOE

·         Send initial PDF and indicate amount of time desired to c.knittle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

·         Contributions planned

·         Did not address

·         Miscellaneous

·         Extend meeting to two hours

·         Announce a F2F meeting now in case we need it. To meet 30 day advance notice, and to give time for plenary submission deadline, meeting should be during week of Sept 28. Let’s make tentative dates Sept 28 (pm) and Sept 29 (all day). Does this work?

·         Can we schedule a F2F meeting during a conference call? Can acting Chair call a meeting? Curtis to ask David.
