Re: [802SEC] BPL Project
Steve,
I haven't seen a response to my emails on this subject. Did you not get them? The SB and SA operating rules do appear to have the latitude to allow IEEE 802 to be an entity member of a ballot.
Regards,
Pat

Geoff,
If it is an issue of coordination, let's address that problem.
I assume we understand and agree that a stronger coordination process is a two-way street.

Steve-
Thanks for your reply.
I will see if I can pursue it. I do believe that the issue is a larger
issue than just this project. I think it is a matter of a deficiency in
IEEE internal provisions for coordination, which are weak at best.
I'm not worried about access to the process for my company (or my own views
via my company). I am worried about 802's ability as a (legitimate)
materially interested party to express its opinion on the upper layer
issues on this project, even though I expect most of the controversy to
surround PHY and transmission media issues.
