Justin,
Thanks for the reply. I am certainly OK for a conference call Tuesday 12 Dec. 7p.m. UK time, but I am not seen any other people interested. We need to get information on TD from people designing XSBI interface into PCS functions and on the tolerance level from Serdes vendors. I did not see your earlier comment on the reflector - cannot find it in the archive - are you sure it got on the general reflector.
Regards
Peter Dartnell

Hello Peter,
I am quite in agreement that we can reduce this number. The question is what
to reduce it to. I have inputs from our engr team on this ... see my earlier
msg onto the reflector but I am open for more specifics. I will set up a
conference
call to those interested.
All,
For any and all interested in having a conference call
on this. Let me know your availability. I would like to set this call to be
Tuesday, Dec 12 sometime ... tentatively 11AM PST time, 2PM EST for one
hour.
Regards,
Justin Chang
