RE: [802SEC] new 802.16 PAR for consideration in March




Roger,  Based on your description it sounds like this might be better
described as a "Recommended Practice" rather than an actual standard.  
Am I missing something ???  Or are you actually delving into conformance
specifications and conformance testing ???

Thanx,  Buzz

Subject: [802SEC] new 802.16 PAR for consideration in March


Dear SEC:

I would like to notify you that I expect 802.16 to put forth a version of
the following PAR for approval in March:

P802.16c: Amendment to IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area
Networks - Part 16: Air Interface for Fixed Broadband Wireless Access
Systems - Detailed System Profiles for 10-66 GHz
<http://ieee802.org/16/docs/02/C80216-02_02.pdf>

The purpose is "To aid the deployment of interoperable systems by defining
and naming a set of system profiles to which manufacturers can test
compliance."

I believe that this PAR falls under the category of "ordinary items (like
Maintenance PARs)" and is therefore not subject to the 30 day notice rule.
Nevertheless, I am notifying the SEC as a courtesy. We are open to comments
from other Working Groups and would ask that they be delivered to us by 5 pm
Tuesday of the Plenary Week, per the custom.

Roger
