How to submit comments

======================

 

Acceptable comment types:

 

E   = Editorial

ER = Editorial Required (Editorial comment that the commenter feels very strongly about)

T    = Technical

TR = Technical Required (Technical comment that the commenter feels very strongly about)

 

For further information regarding comments, please see  http://www.ieee802.org/3/ba/public/sep08/diab_1_0908.pdf

 

 

1. Prepare your comments in one of the following two ways:

 

a. You are strongly requested to use the comment tool in the TF private area at the URL:

 

http://www.ieee802.org/3/ba/private/Generic_Commenting_Tool.zip

Username: 802.3ba

Password: [PASSWORD]

 

To use the tool, extract all components into a folder and do not move any component from that folder as this will cause the executable to not work correctly. The tool is:

 

Comment_Tool_Generic_Solution.exe

 

For further information on using the comment tool, please see  http://www.ieee802.org/3/ba/public/sep08/diab_1_0908.pdf

 

b.  To submit comments in text (ASCII) form, please use the form below.  This will make it possible for the editor to properly record and track all submissions. Make as many copies of the template as necessary and submit as an ASCII text file or as part of your e-mail. Please note that the ASCII method involves a manual transcription, hence you are recommended to check your comments to ensure accurate transcription when the comment file is made available.
