Re: [802SEC] Submission of P802.1s
Tony,
To add to the confusion, let me mention the
RevCom "Early Consideration" process. If
the recirc of P802.1s results in comments which
require changes or another recirc, then you could
issue such a recirc right after the Kauai meeting, and
still get it closed before the December RevCom
meeting, which may allow you to submit the
document for inclusion in the January, 2003
Early Consideration cycle.
The timing would be VERY tight, particularly since
the December RevCom meeting will be held
in Florida (away from the Standards Dept
headquarters). From talking with David Ringle,
the submittal package would have to arrive
in Piscataway no later than December 4th.
So, if you want to keep the option of submitting
for early consideration open, you should alert
Angela, and keep her and Carol Bonfiglio informed.
