[STDS-802-3-EPOC] Editors announce availability of P802.3bn Draft 1.2, comments due by Thursday, 25 December 2014 AOE
Dear IEEE P802.3bn Task Force participants,
The Editors would like to announce the availability of the P802.3bn Draft 1.2. Technically, if we were following a standard ballot process, this would be a recirculation ballot and the responses would be due in 15 days. As we still have holes to fill and as was discussed at the last meeting in San Antonio, we are going to treat this round as comment on anything, due by 25 December 2014. The review of Draft 1.3, expected to be authorized out of the January meeting, will be treated as a true recirculation round with comment responses due in 15 days from availability announcement, with comments permitted against changed or new text only.
The draft is available in the private area of the EPoC web site. You will notice three files for this draft version:
P802d3bn_d12.pdf<http://www.ieee802.org/3/bn/private/Drafts/P802d3bn_d12.pdf> is a clean file without markup. PLEASE COMMENT ONLY ON THIS FILE.
P802d3bn_d12_cmp.pdf<http://www.ieee802.org/3/bn/private/Drafts/P802d3bn_d12_cmp.pdf> is FrameMaker generated markup file showing additions and deletions compared to D1.1.
Based on comments received at the last meeting, the following comparison file is being made available to show the differences between Clause 103 and Clause 77.
P802d3bn_d12_103cmp77.pdf<http://www.ieee802.org/3/bn/private/Drafts/P802d3bn_d12_103cmp77.pdf>
NOTE: Do Not Generate Comment Submission on either CMP file. (comment only against the clean file). CMP files do not have the same page and line numbers as the clean file.
You may notice that the FrameMaker generated markup file shows some figures or equations as having changed that were not changed. For example in Clause 67 Figure 2 is marked as changing when, in fact, it was not changed, only the figure number changed. FrameMaker also does not always mark internal changes to table in an obvious manner. These are a known anomalies of FrameMaker with no known fix other than manually editing the generated file. In general, the Editors will not spend time correcting these anomalies.
If you have already downloaded the comment submission tool, simply use that, no need to download again. Otherwise, it is located at: http://www.ieee802.org/3/WG_tools/filemaker/index.html
Please ask the Editors directly or on the reflector for any help using the tool.
Access to the private area of the web site requires login and password credentials. Please do not forward credentials to anyone. Any member of the EPoC email reflector or the 802.3 Working Group can have access. If you need access, please email me directly.
