RE: [EFM] Re: [EFM-Copper] Long Reach Copper Presentations in Vancouver
Alright, so you clearly don't want to talk about your position before the meeting. That's fine. Given that this isn't a top secret process, I'm not sure why you want to keep it to yourself, but its your call. Its just one of many things I can't comprehend (my wife tops the list for the tenth consecutive year).
On the other hand, you're expressing an opinion that (X+Y) is technically different proposal than treating X and Y as independent proposals, correct? More than that, you want to take up meeting time explaining why that is so. Again, a fair request. But I don't think its unfair for me to ask that we explore that position on the reflector before the meeting. Certainly anything worth taking up the limited time we have in meetings is worth a few email exchanges, no?
By exploring your opinion, i.e. why you will vote the way you do, I wanted to understand why you see SHDSL+AnnexJ as a distinct option from exploring SHDSL and AnnexJ independently. If you don't want to convince me and others of the merits of the proposal using the reflector, why take up time during a meeting? And if you do want to convince people, then I'll put my original questions back on the table: what technical justification is there for grouping the technologies into a single proposal. Or equivalently, what technical reasons are there for someone to vote for (X+Y) without voting for X and voting for Y?
I hope this is what the reflector is for - to discuss the merits of various proposals between meetings. I'd like to see us start talking about these things now, rather than wait til we have limited time in a meeting room.
