doc.: IEEE /0186r0 Submission January 2007 Guenael Strutt, MotorolaSlide 2 Abstract Comment resolution for LB93 labelled “RFI”. RFI stands for “Routing, Forwarding and Interworking”.

doc.: IEEE /0186r0 Submission January 2007 Guenael Strutt, MotorolaSlide 3 RFI comment resolution RFI started with 672 technical comments. 34% of the comments were resolved and adopted Methodology: –All “please clarify” comments were deferred –Comments that were rejected in principle but deserved a technical justification were deferred as well

doc.: IEEE /0186r0 Submission January 2007 Guenael Strutt, MotorolaSlide 4 Moving forward The 444 “Defer” comments should be categorized The idea is to assist in the preparation of resolution proposals –E.g. is someone has a solution for CID 751, the solution might as well resolve CIDs 4616, 3, 519, 1249, 1914, 4617 etc. We’ll save time if we resolve comments in bundles
