I reviewed what we have left for the D-PLCA comments and am not so depressed now…
We only really have 207, 324, and 151 to crack, as well as David Law’s late comment about the receipt of BEACON while transmitting creating a short loop in the D-PLCA
I believe we are just looking for the right wording on 151. (Change P55 L32 (148.4.7.3) in definition of PICK_FREE_TXOP from: "b. it shall not return an ID greater than the highest HARD claimed in the table, unless this is the only one available." to "b. it shall not return an ID greater than the highest HARD claimed in the table, unless this is the only one available." [DEFER TO CONSIDER THE RIGHT WORDING TO INDICATE THAT IT TAKES THE NEXT AVAILABLE ID]) 207 is about finding proper ranges for hard_aging_cycles and soft_aging_cycles. I am willing to withdraw this comment as I think we need to get more right and do simulations. This is my comment, and I am beginning to believe that it is
not technically necessary to standardize ranges on these values as they impact only the learning of a single node. 324 is a little harder, but is about writing descriptive text for the D-PLCA state diagram. If someone can take on the task of adding a small amount of text, we can close this and refine it more later. David offers solutions to his comment about the looping. We can discuss that after dg. As to the other comments, we need to make faster progress. I ask participants to try to focus their energy and statements on resolving the comments at hand. We will have another cycle, and much of the draft (if not most of the draft)
will be touched and therefore in scope. It seems we spent a large amount of our time today on discussion not focused on providing text to close comments. Maybe that’s just my perception, but it can’t hurt to sharpen our focus. However, it is likely that 802.3da will require a meeting outside this week to conclude. As such, I would like to ask all to keep an eye out, and if we seem to not be converging, effectively ‘call the question’ and suggest either adopt
a (discussed) resolution or put a comment into the ‘defer’ bucket. If we are all diligent, our respective timers will keep our meeting state diagrams out of these nonconverging loop-discussions… -george George Zimmerman, Ph.D. President & Principal CME Consulting, Inc.
