Bill,

I gather you are referring to "Frame Extensions".
I think RE is dealing mostly with the timely delivery of frames,
while 802.3ar Frame Extensions is dealing more with increases
in frame lengths.

I think the intent is to transport frames in a timely
fashion, so that a 1394 bridge could (in theory) be built.
I don't think this group is planning on doing that bridge.

If drastic changes were implied, this would be a concern.
I don't think the changes are/will-be all that drastic.

I am new to the reflector, so I hope it is OK if I ask a couple of newbie
questions:

1) How would a PAR for this study group differ from 802.3ar?  Would the 2
TGs be coordinated somehow?
2) Bridging to 1394 is pretty stringent and may be re-inventing the 1394
bridge wheel.  Why not send IP over 1394 in the home and use the isochronous
services of 1394 over CAT-5 rather than drastically changing Ethernet to
support isochronous traffic?

Thanks.

Bill

Attached, please find the list of isochronous requirements for 802.3 RE that
were refined in today's impromptu discussion.

Mike Teener will be providing additional comments to this list.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.
