5. Guidance for submission authors
January 2007
Guidance for submission authors
Use the latest TGn Draft
It’s OK to use D1.07 rather than D1.09, because the differences are minor
But use D1.09 if you are starting a new submission
Use the submission template doc 11-06/0967r0, and read the notes there
Remember to propose new resolutions for already approved comments that conflict with your proposal
You can find by looking for (Ed: CID yyyy) flags in the affected text
Find the comments in document 11-06/541r14
Ad-hoc chairs, copy the comment from 11-06/541 into your spreadsheet and “take ownership” of it

Process for Draft D1.09
Each “A or C” resolution was implemented (if possible). The draft was edited and was also marked with a comment indicating the related CID.
The comments spreadsheet was updated with Edit Status and Edit Notes. Edit Notes indicate any interpretation or modification of the resolution that was implemented. Edit Status indicates one of: EI, EM, EMR, ER, EN (see next slide).
A response to the (A + C) Comments approved in September in is document 11-06/0706r25 in the “Edited in D1_07” tab.
This draft was published as D1.05
The working draft and spreadsheet were reviewed by editorial volunteers who reported ~97 defects.
The defects were corrected, and D1.08 was published and 11-06/0706r26 updated and tab renamed to “Edited in D1_08”.
A new tab “Summary of Recycled from D1_08” holds 17 recycled comments for rework by the ad-hocs.
Three additional errors were corrected in D1.08 (missing table in 21.6) and D1.09 was published.
