I have arranged the teleconference to start after we have
organized. Given the limited free teleconference call, we
will try to deal with the interests of our teleconferenced
attendees first.
Current topics include:
1) Word processor downselection
2) Requirements presentations
3) Lossless transmission
a) 802.3 CM status presentation
b) Acknowledged-twice, a proposal
4) Low latency classA transmissions
a) 802.3 RE status presentation
b) Quasi-synchronous, a proposal
The meeting time allows same-day in-and-out flights,
while missing the more congested meeting-room lunchtime
crowds.
The nearby Castro street is full of restaurants, so you may
want to arrive/park early and have lunch before the meeting
begins.
The purpose of this kickoff meeting is to share background
information, in the form of application requirements and
related specifications/standards.
Contributors are requested to provide presentation summaries
(author, title, time) one week before the meeting. Please
send these to:
