In reviewing our RPR Study Group project plans, including approval of

a new standard within 2 years, it is obvious to me that we will only meet

that kind of aggressive goal if we focus a great deal of our energies on

addressing the issues that need resolution to write the standard.

Let's look at what's ahead and what we need to do now:

Having our PAR and 5 Criteria ready for November is critical.

However, it is unlikely that meeting this date will consume all of our

effort and energies. We must implement a two track plan between now

and November if we are to remain on course.

The first priority track is completion of the PAR and 5 criteria. I

think that we have made excellent progress at the meeting and are well on

our way on that front. One of the action items that came out the last meeting

was to contact Tony Jeffree to see if 802.1 has any concerns we need to address.

There may be a few more small items. Other than that, we should each review

the PAR and 5 Criteria, reading each response carefully. Send a note to the

reflector if you see any area that you believe requires modification.

The second track is progress on the standard! I will address this issue in follow-up noetes.
