802.11v Roll-in Status D7.01 contains .11v February 2011 802.11v Roll-in Status D7.01 contains .11v D7.01 is currently in review by volunteers from former TGv Defects will be resolved in a revision prior to D8.0 There are a significant number of Editor’s Notes highlighting issues that need to be addressed. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

February 2011 802.11u Roll-in Status Our current Plan of Record shows rolling in 802.11u in March. However, .11v roll-in went quicker than expected, and IEEE-SA publication editing for .11u completed earlier than expected Work on the 802.11u roll-in has just started D7.03 will contain .11v – expected during March 802.11 session. Editorial Defects will be resolved in a revision prior to D8.0 Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Planning As indicated earlier, 802.11v and 802.11u will be in D8. February 2011 Planning As indicated earlier, 802.11v and 802.11u will be in D8. Experience from .11v suggests 2 weeks roll-in duration (not including review) is reasonable for .11u and .11s. An adjusted plan of record has been produced taking this into account – see next page for detail. Shows completing comment resolution In Oct Dependent on .11s being available for editing at the start of June Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Comment resolutions were approved at the TGmb CRC telecon on 7th January D6.05 contained the edited resolutions was prepared and should be available before the Jan 2011 session starts.

802.11z Roll-in Status D6.02 contains .11z rolled-in. February 2011 802.11z Roll-in Status D6.02 contains .11z rolled-in. Review highlighted 14 defects, which were fixed in D6.03. Scope of review could not address technical issues highlighted in Editor’s Notes. In particular, power-saving terminology (Use of “BU”) was highlighted as a technical issue by reviewers. Menzo Wentink is preparing a submission showing changes necessary. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

February 2011 Editor’s Notes These are emplaced to highlight issues discovered during roll-in of an amendment or implementation of an approved comment resolution. .11z: 31 .11p: 2 (These are informational and can be removed) Comment resolutions: 11 (mainly 10.3-related) Suggestion: Group to review these notes and decide: 1) to address them prior to ballot 2) to leave them in place for ballot 3) to remove them without addressing them prior to ballot Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Editorial Resolutions needing Discussion February 2011 Editorial Resolutions needing Discussion Count   state Draft LB Owning Ad-hoc Comment Group Resolved Discuss Approved Grand Total  6.00 1000  Editor  Editorials 68 1 69 Terminology 204 2 206 CID 10369. Includes 3 “will” to “shall” changes. Dissent from one reviewer to the editor’s proposal is recorded in the Edit Notes. CID 10449. A resolution is proposed by the editor. However one review proposed an alternate resolution shown in the Ad-hoc Notes. CID 10451. A resolution is proposed that declines to make any editorial fix-ups in Annex H (SDL). However, TGmb should decide whether “is not maintained” at the top of Annex H applies to editorial as well as technical changes. The editor sees no benefit in performing editorial maintenance but not technical maintenance, and feels disinclined to spend any effort on an Annex that, it has been rumoured, has no practical use. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Approved Resolutions needing attention February 2011 Approved Resolutions needing attention Editor requests that the resolution of CID 10112 is reviewed. Comment: 3.1 says that "A bufferable management frame is a unicast management frame of the following subtypes: Action, Disassociation, Deauthentication, or Probe Response (when sent in an IBSS in response to a unicast probe request)".However, this statement in a subsection of section 10.2.1 Power management in an infrastructure network so the IBSS caveat is outside its scope. The IBSS stuff is described in section 10.2.2 Power management in an IBSS. Resolution: Change to read ".. , or a Probe Response frame that is sent in an IBSS in response to a unicast Probe Request frame." Editor’s Notes: I am unclear whether the resolution intended also to delete "; or a group addressed management frame of the following subtypes: Action, Disassociation, or Deauthentication" by showing a period at the end of the replacement text. (Also, FWIW, note that one reviewer claims the resolution is non-responsive, and, FWIW2, I agree.) Please confirm whether the change edited in D6.05 is correct or not. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Planning TGv and TGu approval will not take place until Feb 2011. February 2011 Planning TGv and TGu approval will not take place until Feb 2011. I have spoken with IEEE-SA editorial staff and they will try to bring TGv publication editing forward. We are hoping to see a first version of the copyedits shortly. Need to start editing TGv at start of Feb. This enables us to keep publication of REVmb in 2011. The other variable is whether TGs should be included in REVmb or not – see next slide. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Planning – Impact of TGs February 2011 Planning – Impact of TGs Estimate 4 weeks of roll-in effort. Estimate 4 weeks of additional comment resolution. Separate recirc: + 20 days ballot + 2 weeks editing/review TGs plan indicates EC approval in July and Standards Board approval in Sept It would create a new precedent if the professionally edited sources were available before SB approval. No New Recirc 1 extra recirc Delay to REVmb plan ~ 2 months ~ 3.5 months Latest date TGs sources must be available Early June 2011 Early Aug 2011 Notes No TGmb during July because letter ballot active then Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Planning – Impact of TGs February 2011 Planning – Impact of TGs Based on the previous analysis, we should anticipate an extra recirc: TGs is unlikely to be ready to incorporate by early July TGmb is unlikely to want to “wash” the July session Any additional delay in availability of the sources of TGs to the editor beyond early Aug introduces a day/day slip.

February 2011 Rolling in 802.11p I have rolled in 802.11p into D6.0, resulting in a D6.01 (unpublished). Some of the issues resulting from this roll-in were discussed in September. And a number of action items were identified. So far I have not received this input. Should I publish D6.01 as it is now with editor’s notes calling out the pending actions? Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

Planning TGv and TGu approval is going to slip until early Feb. February 2011 Planning TGv and TGu approval is going to slip until early Feb. I have spoken with IEEE-SA editorial staff and they will try to bring TGv publication editing forward. This early editing allows us to meet our previous project plan dates. If it doesn’t work, we will slip 2 months into 2012 publication. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

February 2011 MEC Draft 5.0 was reviewed by IEEE-SA editorial staff as a mandatory editorial coordination (MEC) See document 11-10/1070r0 for full text of their report The outcome is that we have to change the draft’s scope and purpose statements to match those of the P802.11 PAR before starting sponsor ballot. D6.0 contains these changes, and is on the server. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

February 2011 Rolling in 802.11p I rolled in 802.11p into D5.0, resulting in a D5.01 (unpublished). This was reviewed by the editorial panel, and was in a fit state to post. However, it was not posted because of the ongoing MEC. The changes for MEC and the changes for .11p will need to be merged to produce a D6.01. There is no time urgency on posting this document, and it should not be posted before the end of initial sponsor ballot to avoid confusing the voters. The merge should be an easy matter because changes for the MEC were confined to clause 1. Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation

May 2006 doc.: IEEE 802.11-06/0528r0 February 2011 Process for D3.01 D3.01 speculative editing of 19 editorial comments from LB162 One of these comments (CID 3084) was subsequently transferred to GEN as it actually resolves some technical ambiguities in D3.0. However these speculative edits are present in D3.01, tagged with this CID. One of the 20 editorial comments (CID 3124) was not resolved, and was transferred to MAC. Having made this transfer, I have prepared a resolution to this comment in one of my submissions. D3.01 is currently pending review by Bill, Peter and Mark.
