All,
I would like to now proceed to the EC electronic ballot on the attached updated draft IEEE P802.3bz 2.5/5GBASE-T project update press release I circulated on Friday 22nd May for comment. I've also attached a diff to the draft I circulated then, my thanks to those that provided comments. The most significant change is the addition of a quote from Adrian Stephens.
One of the comments I received during the draft review was that it is unusual for us to issue a press release at a step other that a process step (PAR approval, Working Group ballot, etc.). In this particular case I believe it is justified based on the substantial interest in this activity from industry, and the activity making significant progress, as well as one of the primary application of this IEEE 802.3 project the support of IEEE 802.11, providing the opportunity to demonstrate cross IEEE 802 collaboration.
Paul has delegated the conduct of the EC electronic ballot on the following motion to me. To ensure this release is issued as soon as practical I'm announcing the possibility of an 'early close' to this ballot (see below).
Best regards,
David
Motion
