RE: [802SEC] Annual Report for IEEE 802
Roger,
Actually, I think it is suppose to be 1OCT2000 - 30SEP2001) as 30 September
2000 through 1 October 2001 would cover more than a year. The dates are
right but putting the earlier date first in the range is unusual.
Jim,
Shouldn't 802.9 and 802.12 be shown as disbanded rather than hibernated.
802.9 doesn't have any standards showing on Get802 so I assume they are all
withdrawn. 802.12 was withdrawn last year though the document is still on
Get802 (probably because ISO/IEC 8802-12 still has a few years left).
It isn't clear why the numbers for some new PARs are underlined.
Regards,
Pat

Jim:
(1) Please change:
(30SEP2001 - 1OCT2000)
to
(30SEP2000 - 1OCT2001)
in many places.
(2) This sentence:
In May 2001, all IEEE 802 standards that were published within the
last six months were made available on the IEEE WEB site as part of
the Get IEEE 802 program.
has an error. I suggest:
Beginning May 2001, all IEEE 802 standards at least six months past
their publication date are available on the IEEE web site as part of
the Get IEEE 802 program <http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802>.
(3) Under highlights, I suggest replacing the first paragraph:
Initiated Get IEEE 802 which permitted free on-line download of all
IEEE 802 standards six months after publishing. IEEE 802 individuals
contribute to the financial success of this program.
with
Initiated Get IEEE 802 program, which permits free download of all
IEEE 802 standards beginning six months after publication. IEEE 802
participants support this program financially by transfer of a
portion of the Plenary meeting registration fee to the IEEE-SA.
(4) Under highlights, please change:
IEEE 802.16 Broadband Wireless Access Networks (BWA) completed
standardization of Recommended Practice for Coexistance of Fixed
Wireless System with initial project now in sponsor ballot.
to:
IEEE 802.16 (Broadband Wireless Access (BWA)) completed and published
IEEE Std 802.16.2-2001 ("Coexistence of Fixed Broadband Wireless
Access Systems"). The P802.16 air interface draft is in sponsor
ballot recirculation.
(5) Under New Standards Projects Completed, please change 802.16.2 to:
802.16.2 (C/LM) IEEE Recommended Practice for Local and metropolitan
area networks - Coexistence of Fixed Broadband Wireless Access Systems
(6) Under new PARs, please change 802.16.1b to 802.16b.
Thanks,
Roger
