Re: [EFM] Finally There

Francois,
Good point. I could agree with you if Preamble OAM did not
require amendments to existing 1000BASE-X PCS implementation.
If we adopt preamble OAM, all the existing 1000BASE-X MAC/PCS
(usually they are one) will be incompatible with IEEE802.3.
(See p.20 on suzuki_2_0302.pdf.)
