Token Ring standards have now been withdrawn. A correction was approved to MRP and extensions were approved to the 802.1 projects on LLDP MAC service.
The approval details are as follows:
P802.1ak-2007/Cor1/D3.0 (C/LM) IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks - Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks - Amendment 07: Multiple Registration Protocol - Corrigendum 1: Corrections to the Multiple Registration Protocol
Recommendation: APPROVE
P802.1AX/D2.1 (C/LM) Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks - Link Aggregation
Recommendation: Conditionally approve (yes = 9; no = 2; abstain = 0)
David Law recused himself from this vote, as he is the 802.3 Chair and submitter of this project.
