Re: [STDS-802-3-EPOC] Minutes
Peter,
It does seem odd to me that we have so many holes in the register map. These two in particular stand out, being bracketed by "BASE-R".
As to proprietary purpose I think that the space above 32768 is reserved for just that purpose.

Duane,
Your understanding of Table 45-3 is not correct.
Registers 1.340 through 1.699 & 1.740 through 1.1099 are marked as "Reserved", but so is the range 1.1809 through 1.32767
These ranges are reserved for future Ethernet use not reserved for a specific project. I think that the largest block of registers that has been allocated is 40 registers, e.g. 1.300 through 1.339. The reason that the unallocated registers are marked "Reserved" is to say - don't use these for a proprietary purpose, Ethernet may allocate them in the future.

Steve,
Sorry to have missed this call.
FYI I would have vote "Yes" on each of the straw polls.
I note from Table 45-3 that there are close to 31,000 registers still available and that some past projects have reserved large blocks of registers (see 1.340 through 1.699 & 1.740 through 1.1099 for example), apparently for some future function so it doesn't appear we are in jeopardy of breaking the bank on MDIO registers. That said I don't disagree that we should not be frivolous; defining sub-carrier groups could go a long way to conserving this limited resource.

All,
Attached are the minutes of the RF Spectrum Ad Hoc call. For those who were not on the call we held several straw polls which you can review.
Steve
