RE: [802.3_MAINT] Draft D1.0 is now available
Jeff,
The plan (as reflected in our project objectives) is to
update the modules to include 802.3an (10GBASE-T), 802.3ap
(Backplane), 802.3aq (LRM) and 802.3as (frame format extensions).
The updates needed for 802.3av, 802.3at, 802.3ba and 802.3az
may be performed in a future amendment, which will likely
be numbered 802.3.1a.
We had to put some boundary on the scope of the initial project.
The project objectives were approved at the November, 2008 plenary.
I welcome your offer of assistance. Once we get the modules updated
for .3an, .3ap, .3aq and .3as, it would be very helpful if you
proposed the updates for .3av so that they will be ready to go
when .3.1a starts up.
Howard

Howard hi,
1. It looks like you and John Hawkins have done a terrific job at
integrating all this disparate material.
2. The MIB should reflect 802.3av at some point. Specifically:
* Clause 10 should be updated to reflect 10G-EPON. Primarily this
means updating the terminology and clause references. However there
might be some substantive changes also. I can investigate this and
provide a contribution for the Task Force review phase - provided that
it is in fact within the scope of the current MIB project.
* Has the MIB Task Force discussed updates to the media types in
the IANA-maintained MIB? Eventually, the following PMD types from
802.3av should be reflected by MAU types added to IANAifMauTypeListBits:
10GBASE-PR-U1
10/1GBASE-PRX-U3
10/1GBASE-PRX-U2
10/1GBASE-PRX-U1
10GBASE-PR-D3
10GBASE-PR-D2
10GBASE-PR-D1
10/1GBASE-PRX-D3
10/1GBASE-PRX-D2
10/1GBASE-PRX-D1
