[802.3_100GCU] Reminder - Request for Presentation Time



All,

As a reminder - Requests for presentation time must be made two Fridays preceding the meeting.  For the May Interim meeting, requests for presentation time shall be made to me at jdambrosia@xxxxxxxx  and must be made by May13, 2011.  The presenter shall e-mail a PDF, soft-copy version of the presentation to me at jdambrosia@xxxxxxxx by Tuesday of the week preceding the meeting.  For the May Interim, presentations must be submitted by May 17, 2011. 

 

TO resolve the reach objectives, I am hopeful we will receive a number of presentations on this issue.  From a backplane perspective, Slide 3 of Megha’s recent presentation speaks volumes -

At both extremes individuals might argue that there are broad market potential issues.  Further, some will argue that at the –KR channel extreme – technical feasibility could be a big issue, while others may argue that the scaled – KR channel could have to deal with economic feasibility.  And lying in wait is the coding debate, so many are anxious to start!

 

I remind everyone of the Straw Poll at the end of the March Plenary meeting –

 

Straw Poll #6: I support the goal of requesting PAR at the July 2011 Plenary.

•          Discussion that meeting this goal will require significant work from the SG participants

•          Approved by voice without opposition.

 

Regards,
