Re: [802SEC] Draft press release for review - IEEE Std 802.3bz-2016 2.5/5GBASE-T publication

David,

I have a couple of editorial suggestions:

(1) Instead of "70 billion meters", how about "70 million kilometers"? When people talk about a lot of meters, they are usually referring to some kind of measuring instruments.

(2) "project being approved" => "project initiated"

(3) "so that enterprise interconnect solutions for wireless access points can switch applications served over structured Category 5e or better twisted pair cabling" => "so that enterprise interconnections over structured Category 5e, or better, twisted pair cabling can support modern wireless access points without compromise"

Dear EC members,

Based on consultation with the IEEE-SA PR agency, the attached press release has been drafted in anticipation of the publication of IEEE Std 802.3bz-2016 2.5/5GBASE-T which was approved as an IEEE Standard on 22nd September 2016. Since the development of this press release was at the request of the Task Force Chair and myself I'm seeking EC approval.

I am therefore circulating the attached draft for comment and have asked that approval of this release be placed on the IEEE 802 802 EC interim teleconference consent agenda.

Thanks and best regards,
  David
