Re: [8023-CMSG] FW: [802.3] FW: March 2004 IEEE 802.3 Meeting Announcement
Shimon:
Though I did see the smile after your comment I can't let the
implication go unanswered that I might at some level be less than fully
supportive of this study group. I strongly support its work and will be
encouraging SG renewal in July.
I continue to receive comments about and requests to improve Ethernet
performance for emerging limited topology applications. These requests
invariably are based on the desire to reduce network frame drops or to
improve the latency / latency variance of the network.
I believe there is significant market potential even with fewer switches
than what Gary has proposed as his limited topology. I'm encouraged by
some of the creative thinking about the appropriate scope for an 802.3
project. I think if we continue to refine agreement on the topological
scope for the potential solutions, it will provide a significantly
easier task to evaluate the market potential and desirability of various
alternatives.
