I am responding in the affirmative although I think the statement about
"developing new PHYs as necessary" should be deleted. If a new PHY is
required, a separate PAR will be submitted for approval and should be
announced at that point in time. We don't want to give the
impressions that they have license to create new PHYs without a separate
justification and approval cycle. Thanx, Buzz
