I vote NO on the submission.
While there is a mention of the IEEE 802 incumbents in the 6-7 GHz band
(i.e., UWB), this is passed over as a job for 802.19.
Any effective coexistence mechanism would need to be a normative
requirement in any new IEEE 802 wireless standard that seeks to use the
band.
If the response was fair, it would argue for increase power limits for
UWB devices in this band as well as for potential 802.11 usage.
Also, you asked for early close, but did not provide the reasoning why a
10 day ballot was not sufficient. What, exactly, is the deadline for
this response?

which will take some time. The deadline for filing is 02 October 2017. Paul has delegated the conduct of the EC electronic ballot to me.
