23Feb00 11:30am EST!!! WPAN'ers, We clarified one of our Voting Members Comment Resolution. -99/173r5 was reved to -99/173r5a to include a more detailed explanation: Houman Alborzi HXA18 was "Comment declined" now it reads: Comment declined : This is just an example. The peer0 can be understood as 802.15/802.11 units. For instance, in case that the AP is assumed to be 802.11 unit, the connection between piconets and AP is only possible through peer0s. If the AP is assumed as 802.15 unit, other peer units may be able to connect to the AP directly. However, a part of Figure 4 is updated especially, an area of Piconet B covers peer3/2 in Piconet A. Note: Houman was copied directly on this. Sorry for any confusion. Happy Balloting! -Ian From: Bob Heile [bheile@bbn.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2000 10:38 AM To: stds-802-15@ieee.org Subject: WPAN/ Begin of Letter Ballot 2-close March 3.
