[802SEC] Conditional Approval package for 15.3c for the Friday EC meeting

[Bob Heile <bheile@ieee.org>]

Dear EC members-

Attached is the package supporting a request for conditional approval to 
forward the 15.3c draft to RevCom.

We completed the 2nd recirc earlier this month with no new no votes or new 
comments associated with previous no votes.  We had one no vote without 
comment.  We received 9 new comments associated with a yes vote.  From a 
pure process perspective, we were done but these comments pointed out a 
couple of minor technical issues.  Since there was still time to do another 
recirc, we thought it prudent to get these in the draft and seek 
conditional approval instead of unconditional.

There are a total of 44 unsatisfied comments associated with the 
draft.  All but 13 of these were accepted or accepted in principle, but the 
voters responsible for these have not been contactable since the initial 
sponsor ballot.  Of the remaining 13, we disagreed with 12.  These were 
more philosophical in character such as "change MAC aggregation scheme", 
"delete a particular PHY mode", "too many PHY options", etc. The remaining 
comment dealt with 48 v 64 bit addressing which is a MAC issue.  Since this 
is a PHY amendment, this was ruled out-of-scope.  The full comment database 
for the disapprove comments can be found at 
https://mentor.ieee.org/802.15/dcn/09/15-09-0571-01-003c-combined-sb-disapprove-comments.xls.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Regards

Bob
