Notice: This document has been prepared to assist IEEE DySPAN-SC and its Working Groups. It is offered as a basis for discussion and is not binding on the contributing individual(s) or organization(s). The material in this document is subject to change in6 form and content after further study. The contributor(s) reserve(s) the right to add, amend or withdraw material contained herein.
Release: The contributor grants a free, irrevocable license to the IEEE to incorporate material contained in this contribution, and any modifications thereof, in the creation of an IEEE Standards publication; to copyright in the IEEE’s name any IEEE Standards publication even though it may include portions of this contribution; and at the IEEE’s sole discretion to permit others to reproduce in whole or in part the resulting IEEE Standards publication. The contributor also acknowledges and accepts that this contribution may be made public by IEEE DySPAN-SC.
Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE Patent Policy and Procedures including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to IEEE DySPAN-SC and its Working Groups of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE DySPAN-SC Committee. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at < >.

5. Participants, Patents, and Duty to Inform
All participants in this meeting have certain obligations under the IEEE-SA Patent Policy.
Participants [Note: Quoted text excerpted from IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws subclause 6.2]:
“Shall inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of each “holder of any potential Essential Patent Claims of which they are personally aware” if the claims are owned or controlled by the participant or the entity the participant is from, employed by, or otherwise represents
“Personal awareness” means that the participant “is personally aware that the holder may have a potential Essential Patent Claim,” even if the participant is not personally aware of the specific patents or patent claims
“Should inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed)” of the identity of “any other holders of such potential Essential Patent Claims” (that is, third parties that are not affiliated with the participant, with the participant’s employer, or with anyone else that the participant is from or otherwise represents)
The above does not apply if the patent claim is already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance that applies to the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group
Early identification of holders of potential Essential Patent Claims is strongly encouraged
No duty to perform a patent search

Relative costs, including licensing costs of essential patent claims, of different technical approaches may be discussed in standards development meetings.
Technical considerations remain primary focus
Don’t discuss or engage in the fixing of product prices, allocation of customers, or division of sales markets.
Don’t discuss the status or substance of ongoing or threatened litigation.
Don’t be silent if inappropriate topics are discussed … do formally object.

15. PAR Extension Questions
1. Number of years that the extension is being requested: 2 years
NOTE: The average extension request is for one or two years. NesCom will consider requests for extensions of three or four years on an exceptional basis. Such requests must be supported with sufficient detail on planned actions and activity dates to provide reasonable confidence that the project can be completed within the extended time.
2. Why an Extension is Required: A partial draft has been completed and a development plan for the standard is provided in The work required to realize the scope of the project is larger than initially realized. The WG has taken steps to minimize the additional work required by identifying other standards and specifications to incorporate by reference. We now believe 2 additional years is sufficient to complete the project.
This should include a description of what the working group has accomplished and what remains to be accomplished, along with the reasons why the work was unable to be completed in the allotted time frame
3.1. What date did you begin writing the first draft:
08/24/2013
3.2. How many people are actively working on the project: 7
3.3. How many times a year does the working group meet:
In person: 3
Via teleconference:
12 + Ad Hocs
3.4. How many times a year is a draft circulated to the working group via electronic means:
On average 4
3.5. What percentage of the Draft is stable:
30%
3.6. How many significant work revisions has the Draft been through: 1
4. When will/did sponsor balloting begin:
1/2017
When do you expect to submit the proposed standard to RevCom:
6/20 17
Has this document already been adopted by another source?:
No.
