Dear Guido, Al, and All,The 802.4 C Thru Air Media Amendment Project Approval is attached. Note that it was approved 10 December 1987. Unfortunately I don't know of any surviving members of that project (Chandos Rypinski and Paul Eastman passed away). It would be great if someone does.
I know Chandos references 802.4L, but there is no record of it, only 802.4C, he may have mis-remembered in contribution 5-06/0107. Chandos was a great 802 volunteer, I remember him well from his many contributions to various 802 groups..

Hi Paul, Hi Al, Hi all, At 2024-08-13T20 Uhr:32+0200 Paul Nikolich wrote:No, nothing has been prepared yet for the 802.11 Working Group. I think it will be great if you could trace the 802.11WG back to its origins in 802.4 -- there was a project named 802.4L Thru Air Media in the late 1980s that I think eventually morphed into 802.11 in 1990.15-06/0107 claims that everything started with IEEE 802.4L. Might be worthwhile to have a look at this contribution. Have a nice weekend, best regards, Guido ---------- This email is sent from the 802 Executive Committee email reflector.
