Chair reminded everyone of IEEE-SA Patent policy.  Call for patents.  No one came forward.

 

Reviewed dambrosia_01_0410.pdf, which included reviewing oif2010.092.03.pdf, which had been forwarded with the OIF liaison. 

 

Discussion focused on issues highlighted in oif2010.092.03. 

 

It was noted that the slide regarding the connector crosstalk target provided in OIF2010.092.03 is incomplete, as the Tx (voltage swing, edge rates) is not defined.

 

Chair did call for presentations on these topics for future meetings, and asked any individuals wishing to present to contact him for meeting planning.

 

Chair reminded group that the response to the OIF would be technical, and anticipated that the WG chair would rule the motion “Technical” requiring a >=75% vote at the WG level.

 

Chair reminded group that discussion related to this ad hoc activity should be directed to the 802.3 Working Group Dialog Reflector.

 

Discussion regarding schedule of phone calls / meetings to create the response.  A number of individuals indicated that they were not planning on attending the May interim meeting.  Therefore, plan is to hold conference call on May 18^th 10:30am to 12:30pm Eastern.  Additional meetings will be planned as needed afterwards.
