3. doc.: IEEE 802.11-10/0173r0 Submission Jan 2010 Andrew Myles, CiscoSlide 3 JTC1 ad hoc discussed the status of WAPI and Progress in Atlanta –Reviewed the status of WAPI in ISO/IEC – it is still subject to a New Project vote but the draft has been recently modified –Started a technical review of WAPI –Recommended that the WG invite appropriate experts to present a tutorial on the Chinese standards process to the IEEE 802.11 meeting in Beijing in May 2010 –Recommended the WG liaise all IEEE 802.11 Sponsor Ballot drafts to ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6 as a matter of course Plans for Jan 2010 –Consider any JTC1 liaison issues –Continue technical evaluation of WAPI

4. doc.: IEEE 802.11-10/0173r0 Submission Jan 2010 Andrew Myles, CiscoSlide 4 JTC1 ad hoc recommends that a Chinese standards tutorial be held in May 10 It was decided that it might be helpful for the WG to hear a tutorial relating to the Chinese standards process in Beijing At the same time the WG could explain the IEEE standards process and status to Chinese participants in Beijing The goal would be to improve understanding and communications between the Chinese and IEEE standards practitioners Motion –The JTC1 ad hoc recommends to the 802.11 WG that appropriate Chinese standards groups be invited by the 802.11 WG Chair to present a tutorial on the Chinese standards processes related to LAN/MAN/PAN networking technologies, in a slot in which IEEE 802 also describes its processes. This tutorial would be held sometime on Monday to Wednesday at the meeting in Beijing in May 2010 –Result 13/0/0

5. doc.: IEEE 802.11-10/0173r0 Submission Jan 2010 Andrew Myles, CiscoSlide 5 JTC1 ad hoc recommends all 802.11 SB draft be liaised to SC6 for review In Nov 09, a liaison was sent to ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6 offering to send them 802.11 SB drafts, on request, for the purpose of comment and review SC6 responded this week by requesting that all 802.11 SB drafts be sent to SC6 as a matter of course The WG Chair is working with the EC Chair and the IEEE-SA to determine the process required to make this happen Motion –The JTC1 ad hoc recommends to the 802.11 WG Chair that all 802.11 drafts sent to a Sponsor Ballot or a recirculation Sponsor Ballot be liaised to ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6 for review and comment. Any such drafts should contain front matter and headers/footers as specified by the IEEE-SA. –Result: 13/0/0
