Re: [802SEC] Updated LMSC OM and LMSC P&P
Todd,
I'm not a lawyer, but we have been using LMSC for as long as I can remember. I think things are context sensitive, and perhaps it could be argued that our context is different enough from Lockheed's, but I'd prefer not to venture an opinion.
One thing I will say is that in my editing instructions (not part of the documents) I encouraged the use of IEEE 802 rather than LMSC just for consistency. But old habits die hard, and clearly I've been slipping backwards a bit. I guess this would be one more reason to favor IEEE 802 over LMSC for a title and I will once more endeavor to do so...
Thanks,
Mat

The one non-editorial change was in the section of the OM on directed positions. There was one broken link I missed that would have pointed to a section moved to the new WG P&P. For now, I have deleted the pointer (it does not change any of the meanings). We can add it back later if desired.

For my own benefit, I plan to start work on a LMSC OM revision to fix minor editorial issues, and simplify the LMSC OM revision process (make it the same as the LMSC P&P except that it can be changed more than once a year). During the March Plenary I will be accepting other EC members personal pet peeves (as long as the changes aren't too massive) for inclusion in a catch all rev to the LMSC OM that I am willing to run. Please don't send your desired changes now as I'd prefer not to stock pile at this point. At the end of the March Plenary I plan to initiate another LMSC OM revision for the catch all changes.
