Dear 
  802.3ap attendeed (signaling ad hoc),
   
  As 
  mentioned at the 802.3 Interim mtg, we will be holding some more signaling ad 
  hoc meetings between now and the November mtg.  I have reserved bridges 
  for the following dates below.  There was no objection voiced to keeping 
  the Thursday 8AM timeslot, so I have taken the liberty of re-using it.  
  Preliminary topics for this week's meeting are:
   
  1) 
  Addressing signaling agressors and noise (the things which cause bit 
  errors)
          Which are 
  random, which are deterministic, which must be worst-case 
  modeled
   
  2) 
  Additional components to the simulation model (beyond the channel 
  itself)
          Package 
  and termination models - can we agree on a common model for 
  these?
   
  I 
  would like to have a focussed discussion on these topics at this 
  meeting.
   
  I 
  will distribute the slides for this week's meeting first thing tomorrow 
  AM.
   
  .../Mike
