Dear Task Force Participants,

With this e-mail, I'd like to announce the start of the IEEE P802.3bu/D2.2 Power over Data Lines (PoDL) Working Group initial recirculation ballot.

Open date: Monday 18th April 2016
Close date: Monday 2nd May 2016 23:59 AOE

As stated in the attached announcement, the ballot group for this draft is the IEEE 802.3 voting membership as of Friday 13th November 2015. All comments received before the close of ballot will be considered, the one limitation however is that if you are not a member of the balloting group, and therefore cannot cast a ballot, you cannot designate comments as TR or ER since you cannot cast a Disapprove ballot. Please consider this in your ballot/comment decision making.

Best regards,
Dan Dove

Dear Colleagues,

This is the announcement of the electronic IEEE 802.3 Working Group 2nd recirculation ballot on the amendment IEEE P802.3bu Power over Data Lines (PoDL). Remember that voting, as well as attendance, is a requirement to maintain your IEEE 802.3 member (voter) status <http://ieee802.org/3/rules/member.html#DOT3>. Instructions for accessing the draft, casting your ballot and submitting comments follow this announcement. Please review the commenting instructions below to ensure you are using the most up to date tools.

The ballot group for this draft is the IEEE 802.3 voting membership as of Friday 13th November 2015.

Because this is a recirculation ballot, YOU ONLY NEED TO CAST A BALLOT IF YOU WISH TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE FROM THAT WHICH WAS RECORDED ON THE INITIAL BALLOT OR LAST RECIRCULATION. If you voted previously and your vote has not changed, the last ballot cast will be carried over to this ballot and you do not need to cast a new ballot.

BALLOT SCOPE:
During this IEEE 802.3 Working Group 2nd recirculation ballot, the scope of the ballot is the substantive changes between IEEE P802.3bu/D2.2 and IEEE P802.3bu/D2.1 and the unsatisfied negative comments from the 1st recirculation ballot.

CRITERIA FOR STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT:
One of the responsibilities as a balloter is to ensure that draft is consistent with the criteria for standards development (CSD) responses which are available at <http://ieee802.org/3/bu/P802d3bu_5C.pdf>. An Approve vote indicates your agreement that the draft is consistent with the CSD responses.

BALLOT OPEN:
Monday 18th April 2016

BALLOT CLOSE:
Monday 2nd May 2016 23:59 AOE

The Project Authorization Request for this amendment is available at <http://ieee802.org/3/bu/P802d3bu_PAR.pdf> and includes the following:

TITLE:
Standard for Ethernet Amendment: Physical Layer and Management Parameters for 1-Pair Power over Data Lines

SCOPE OF PROJECT:
Define methodology for the provision of power via a single twisted pair to connected Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) with IEEE 802.3 interfaces.

NEED FOR THE PROJECT:
Single twisted pair Ethernet links are in development (e.g. IEEE P802.3bp) and some applications (e.g., automotive sensors, industrial devices) require power delivery over the link. A new standard is required to provide power over single twisted pair links where IEEE Std 802.3 Clause 33 Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) Power via Media Dependent Interface (MDI) cannot be used.

Thank you for your participation in this ballot and careful review of the draft.

1. Prepare your comments in one of the following three ways. You are STRONGLY REQUESTED to use either the comment tool or spreadsheet. A comment entry tutorial is available at: 

<http://ieee802.org/3/ballots/p802d3_comment_entry_tutorial_v1p0.pdf> 

a. Access the comment tool at the URL (last updated 16th September 2015):

<http://www.ieee802.org/3/WG_tools/filemaker/Generic_Commenting_Tool_FM.zip>

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

b. Access the comment spreadsheet at the URL:

<http://www.ieee802.org/3/WG_tools/spreadsheet/802d3_TFR_WGB_comments.xls>

c. 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: 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. Please use one of the comment tools above if possible.
