---------------------------------------------------------------------



This Email is attached to an official 802.1 Task Group ballot form for P802.1aa/D6.1.   As this is a full Working Group ballot, only 802.1 voting members and liaisons are entitled to vote; however, any non-voting participants in the activities of 802.1 may submit a "Comment Only" ballot on the draft. In accordance with established practice in 802, all comments received, whether from voters or non-voters, are given due consideration during the ballot resolution process.

The list of current voting members of 802.1 is as follows:

Floyd           Backes
Les             Bell
Paul            Bottorff

It should be noted that the ongoing retention of 802.1 voting rights is predicated on active participation in Working Group ballots.  Active participation is defined to be returning ballot forms in two out of the last three Working Group ballots. The 802 Operating Rules allow abstention for any cause other than "lack of technical expertise" to be treated as though it were a failure to respond to a ballot. 802.1 applies this rule.


The closing date of this ballot is:

        17th July 2003

If you have any difficulty downloading or reading this file, let me know.

PLEASE NOTE that the volume of change in this document relative to D5 is large, due to the re-description of the state machines in order to show the distinction between the 802.1X protion and the "EAP Layer" portion of the solution. In order to improve the clarity of the document, all redline/strikout marking has been removed from D6.1, as the clutter of deleted material was rendering the text difficult to read. However, a version of D6.1 with redline/strikeout marking retained can be found in the aa-drafts/d6 subdirectory of the website.

As is normal with our ballots, comments should specify not only what problems have been identified with the text, but also what the commenter proposes as a solution. In particular, Disapprove ballots MUST be accompanied by Technical, Required and/or Editorial, Required comments that clearly identify what the balloter requires to be done in order to change his/her vote to Approve.

Any comments accompanying the ballot should be presented using the following template:


NAME: <Your Name>
COMMENT TYPE: <TR (Technical, Required), T (Technical), ER (Editorial,
Required), or E (Editorial)>
CLAUSE: <Clause/subclause number>
PAGE: <Page number>
LINE: <Line Number>
COMMENT START:
<Details of comment>
COMMENT END:
SUGGESTED CHANGES START:
<Details of suggested changes>
SUGGESTED CHANGES END:
