Draft status

• At November session, the TG instructed the editor to produce a D2.0 for ballot based on resolved comments and a few motions (y/n/a=59/1/4=98.3%)

• However, the WG motion to take the draft to ballot failed (y/n/a=33/12/9=73.3%)

• As a result, D1.4 (instead of D2.0) was released following the November session

• D1.4 is effectively the draft motioned by the TG for D2.0 at the November session

Expectation for D2.0

• D2.0 = D1.4 plus the following– Incorporate revised resolution for CID 3398 in 11/1566r1

(Antenna Indication in VHT Capabilities Info)• Editor missed this when preparing D1.4

– Any additional changes approved this session

Process for motioning resolutions

• Change from what we did last time

• A single document, “11/1430 LB178 D1.0 comments for motion”, will contain resolutions ready for motion

• 11/1430r2 reflects resolutions through end of ad-hoc last week

• Tabs in the spreadsheet list comments awaiting motion

• Tabs labeled with ad-hoc name (GEN, MU, COEX, MAC, PHY) and the date the resolution was strawpolled

Draft status

• D1.2 was released 7 October 2011– Reflects resolutions that passed motion during the September 2011

session

• D1.3 is available in the member’s area– Reflects resolutions that passed strawpoll during the telecons since

September and a few resolutions from November ad-hoc at Cisco

– See spreadsheet in 11/1430r2:• Look for non-blank “Edit status”

– I = implemented, N = not implemented

• Also, look at “Edited in draft” column– Indicates draft revision where change was made
