Re: [802SEC] Liaison letter to SC6 (Yet another "refinement")



Andrew-
That works for me.
My e-mail was more directed to being a heads-up on the issue
vs. calling for yet another edit.

G'day all

I also note that while there might be some ambiguity in the table in the letter in relation to ISO/IEC 8802-5's amendments (as noted by Geoff), the text in the body of the liaison is very clear. It states, " /Therefore, IEEE 802 requests that ISO/IEC 8802-2 and ISO/IEC 8802-5, and their amendments, remain in "stablized" state in ISO/IEC/". Hopefully, with this text and Bruce articulating the intent in person at the SC6 meeting, we will send the intended message.

All-

I hate to keep stirring this pot...

But I just came across, shall we say, a lack of completeness that I think it appropriate to mention.

I'll let Bruce and crew decide whether the liaison letter needs to be amended or whether this issue just needs to be kept in mind during discussions and ongoing documentation.

The issue:

One item that was on the chart of ISO/IEC version to "be handled" was:

ISO/IEC 8802-5

There are really TWO standards that should be covered there.

ISO/IEC 8802-5:1998 (Base standard)

and

ISO/IEC 8802-5:1998/Amd 1:1998 (Dedicated token ring operation and fibre optic media)

We want them both to be "Stabilized" forever.

Best regards,

Geoff
