Dear Colleagues,

The IEEE P802.3dj Task Force editorial team received feedback from IEEE SA staff on the proposed responses to comments against D3.2. Their feedback was valuable to our path to request conditional approval to proceed to RevCom. The feedback is as follows for bucket1:

Item #1: -5, R2-9, R2-10, R2-11, R2-38, R2-39, R2-40, R2-41, R2-44, R2-56, R2-58, R2-84, R2-85, R2-104, R2-133, R2-165, R2-168, R2-173, R2-176, R2-207 - Recommend changing "This change will be passed to the IEEE staff editor for consideration during final editing." to "This change is referred to IEEE SA Editorial staff for consideration during preparation for publication."

Item #2: R2-8 - Recommend deleting the following text - "The wording could be further clarified to read "is less than or equal to the minimum of the range specified in Table 178-6", but this change is not required."

Item #3: R2-12 - It appears that there will be no change made to the draft. This should be Reject instead of Accept in Principle. I would also recommend changing the last sentence on deferring the change to editorial staff as noted above.

Similar changes to the first item were also made in the full comment reports.

Therefore, _revised_ proposed responses to comments submitted during the second recirculation SA ballot of IEEE P802.3dj D3.2 were posted (see: https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/index.html). Please note that there are three files:

· Revised Initial Proposed Responses listed by Clause – https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D3p2/8023dj_D3p2_comments_proposed_clause_260903.pdf

· Revised Initial Proposed Responses listed by ID – https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D3p2/8023dj_D3p2_comments_proposed_id_260903.pdf

· Revised Proposed Responses Placed in “Bucket 1” – https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D3p2/8023dj_D3p2_comments_proposed_id_bucket1_260903.pdf

During the P802.3dj Task Force electronic meeting session, a motion is anticipated on Wednesday, 9 September 2026 to accept the proposed responses to comments in “Bucket 1.” Please note any comments withdrawn from “Bucket 1” will be excluded explicitly in this motion.

Additionally, the editorial team may continue to refine the proposed responses to comments that are not contained in bucket1 and may provide updated proposed response comment reports. These updates, if made, will be announced via the email reflector.

With regards,

-Kent

IEEE P802.3dj Task Force Recording Secretary

Dear Colleagues,

The P802.3dj Task Force Chair delegated to me the announcement of the proposed response reports and “bucket 1”.

Proposed responses to comments submitted during the second recirculation SA ballot of IEEE P802.3dj D3.2 were posted (see: https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/index.html). Please note that there are three files:

· All Initial Proposed Responses listed by Clause – https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D3p2/8023dj_D3p2_comments_proposed_clause.pdf

· All Initial Proposed Responses listed by ID – https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D3p2/8023dj_D3p2_comments_proposed_id.pdf

· Proposed Responses Placed in “Bucket 1” – https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/comments/D3p2/8023dj_D3p2_comments_proposed_id_bucket1.pdf

Note to all commenters and participants –

In the interest of devoting as much meeting time as possible to perceived issues, the editorial team was encouraged to make liberal use of “Bucket 1” for comments.

Individuals are encouraged to review the file containing all of the bucket responses.

Requests to withdraw comments from “Bucket 1” must be made to John D’Ambrosia, Matt Brown and Kent Lusted by 7:59:59 am Eastern time (UTC-4) , Tuesday, 8 September 2026. This can be done with this link: mailto:jdambrosia@xxxxxxxxx;mbrown8023@xxxxxxxxx;kent.lusted@xxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=[P802.3dj]%20IEEE%20P802.3dj%20Bucket1%20Pull%20Request

Individuals are strongly encouraged to provide a summary of the reason for pulling the respective comment to assist the editors in understanding the issue to be addressed.

My thanks to all individuals for their review of the document, and Matt Brown and our editorial team for their diligent efforts in responding.

Regards,

-Kent
