Re: [802SEC] FW: Standards Due for Maintenance in 2002 - C/LM
Paul, regarding the IEEE 802.5 standards. The 1998 supplement obsoletes
802.5j and includes 802.5r, so I don't know why 802.5r is listed. Certainly
the l998 editions of the standard and the supplement should be reaffirmed
when they time out.
Best regards,
