VC1: These topics will also be discussed later in the week, as shown in document 11-13-0001r2 with marked changes. 8.3. Question (Q): What will be the difference between a TIG and what WNG SC currently does? Perhaps this could be discussed in more detail on Wednesday. 8.4. VC1: Sure. 8.5. VC1: There are also some rule changes occurring within IEEE 802 regarding the 5 Criteria (5C) document, which will renamed the “CSD”. This will include clarifications to the current set of questions. 8.6. VC1: Another issue is the discussion about what constitutes an interim for the maintenance of voting rights. This is now being discussed within the IEEE 802 Executive Committee (EC) and will possibly become a change to the IEEE 802 rules. 8.7. Q: What is the criteria regarding the documentation for the creation of a TIG?

8.8. VC1: This will be similar to that of a study group, but not be so constrained. In other words scope and purpose will still be required in some form.

22.1. VC1: This is some information about the IEEE 802.11 OM (operation Manual) changes regarding “agendas”, “topic interest groups”, as documented within 11-13-0001r2. 22.2. C: Regarding 4.1 of the TIG description (slide #12), can we also do this at interim meetings? 22.3. Chair: We’ll present the modified actual wording from 11-13-0001r2. 22.4. VC2: The word plenary is actually used to describe a meeting (e.g. for a 2 hour slot). 22.5. Chair: This is referring to one of the three plenaries during a typical week, e.g. an IEEE 802.11 plenary as opposed to an IEEE 802 plenary. 22.6. C: Ah, that’s not what I understood. 22.7. VC2: We’ll post an 11-13-0001r3. 22.8. C: Can the TIG itself work on a PAR and 5C? 22.9. Chair: The working group should see a PAR and 5C before the IEEE 802 Executive Committee can approve it. The intent of a TIG is not to bypass this step. 22.10. C: But could the Study Group phase be avoided. 22.11. Chair: That was not the intent. 22.12. C: Could we then delay a decision on this until Friday please. 22.13. Chair: Yes, ok. 22.14. VC1: The text does state that a TIG should be used prior to a study group. 22.15. Straw Poll: 22.15.1. Who would like to see this later on Friday, as opposed to who like to move this motion at this point? 22.15.2. Chair: based on the show of hands, I will delay this to Friday.

22.16. IEEE 802 WG P&P Change 22.17. Regarding the definition of interims that count towards voting rights, a small amendment has been suggested to the IEEE 802 P&Ps. 22.18. Chair: This is not a change which affects IEEE 802.11. It’s more for the other IEEE 802 working groups.

22.19. IEEE 802 Chair’s Guideline 22.20. This document will be modified to point to RFC 4441bis (or it’s completed number) 22.21. Chair: These changes were made last Sunday and some of the documentation still needs to be refined. Therefore we’ll talk about it more on Friday morning.

22.22. IEEE 802 OM changes (ee-13-0008r2) 22.23. This will also be considered during Friday’s Exec Committee (EC) and is regarding changes to the 5 Criteria (5C). The new name would be “IEEE 802 criteria for standards development” (CSD). 22.24. Straw poll: 22.24.1. Do you want to call this document CSD as opposed to 5C? 22.24.2. VC1: Following a show of hands, it appears to be an even result. 22.24.3. C: We already use CSD as a technical term within IEEE 802.11 22.24.4. VC1: I also think that IEEE 802.3 use this term as well. 22.25. VC1: note that there are also changes to the 5C themselves. 22.26. Chair: So currently were not sure, as there’s no formal material to review. 22.27. C: Please can we have a formal motion during the IEEE 802.11 closing plenary, so that the IEEE 802.11 members can provide some specific direction for the WG chair to take to the EC. 22.28. C: About 10 years ago, we tried to create a 6C document and that went away. I would like to also consider a new criteria regarding co-existence. 22.29. VC1: Yes, these would be included in the new CSD. Minutes page 9 Stephen McCann, RIM March 2013 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0218r1

24. IEEE 802.11 Schedule and Room Changes (11-13-0166r4)

24.1. Chair: Are there any other changes to this week’s schedule? 24.2. Initially, are there any groups which wish to cancel slots? 24.3. TGaf chair: TGaf has adjourned for the week and can cancel its remaining slots. 24.4. TGac chair: TGac wishes to conditionally cancel Thurs AM1 and AM2, based on upcoming motions. 24.5. TGah chair: TGah will also possibly Thurs AM2 and PM2. 24.6. C: regarding the 5GHz Regulatory document, could we use some of the TGaf slots to work on it please? 24.7.

36. Liaison Reports

36.1. IEEE 802.15 (11-13-0387r0) 36.1.1. No questions

36.2. IEEE 802.18 (11-13-0376r0) 36.2.1. Chair: I don’t think we actually need a motion on the request for the IEEE 802.11 Regulatory SC to work on the response that you mentioned, as the Regulatory SC is sanctioned to do this work anyway. In addition, this document will be approved by IEEE 802.18, before going to the FCC.

36.3. OmniRAN (11-13-0357r0) 36.3.1. Chair: The request to extend the Study Group will come up this afternoon. People have asked questions about if OmniRAN overlaps with 802.1 and/or 802.21.

38. IoT Summary (11-13-0168r2 slide #43)

38.1. Chair: The IEEE-SA has a call for contributions to the Internet of Things (IoT), which I would like to bring to your attention. 38.2. IEEE 802 Chair: It is very important to obtain some clarity from the IEEE-SA as to what they are looking for. Otherwise this is basically a pointless exercise. 38.3. Chair: Sure, I agree. Hopefully though we can work to IEEE-SA to sort out their list of standards that they currently have.

39.1. University Outreach (slide #44) 39.1.1. VC1: I just want to mention that the 1 student who attended this week had a good day. Minutes page 16 Stephen McCann, RIM March 2013 doc.: IEEE 802.11-13/0218r1

39.1.2. Chair: This event will occur again in July 2013. 39.1.3. No questions

40. Future Venues (11-13-0168r2, slide #46)

40.1. Chair: regarding the September meeting, the name of the hotel in Nanjing is now available. 40.2. Also prior to the July 13 meeting in Geneva there will be a workshop, which may be held with the ITU. 40.3. Chair: Moving to 2014 (slide #47), the Kobe, Japan location is not 100% sure, but is still our 1st priority. 40.4. Q: regarding the July 2013 meeting, where is the hotel information? 40.5. VC1: The meeting is a bit different, as there is no specific IEEE 802.11 hotel. This is because the meeting is in a convention center and there are many hotels in the downtown area. 40.6. VC1: However, do remember to reserve your hotel as soon as possible 40.7. Chair: regarding the May meeting in Hawaii, although the early bird room rate has now gone, rooms are still available. 40.8. Chair: Please note that there is an interim meeting in Beijing primarily for TGaj work.

41. IEEE 802.11 Operations Manual Changes (11-13-0187r4, slide #19)

41.1. VC1: This describes the update to the IEEE 802.11 Operations Manual (OM) that we mentioned earlier during the week. 41.2. C: There are still a couple of typos to fix in the motion. 41.3. VC1: Ok, I’ll just revise the motion now. 41.4. Operations Manual Update (slide #22) 41.4.1. Approve 11-13/0001r2 as the 802.11 Operations Manual plus add the word “meeting” after “WG Plenary” in the last bullet of the TIG added section. 41.4.2. Note: will be posted as r3 with the change-bars removed. 41.4.3. Moved: Jon Rosdahl, Seconded: Adrian Stephens 41.4.4. For: 51, Against: 0, Abstain: 3 (Motion passes 100%)

42. IEEE 802 Revsied “CSD & 5C” document (11-13-187r4 side #24)

42.1. VC1: This slide explains the rational behind the changes that the IEEE 802 EC has agreed to this document. 42.2. Regarding the term “5C”, the IEEE 802 EC still wish to change this to “CSD and 5C”, which is basically the original 5C with some new items added (i.e. the new CSD bits). 42.3. Q: So can you now have separate sets of comments on the CSD and the 5C. Therefore which part is the mandatory part for a project to go ahead? 42.4. A: I don’t think it’s a big issue. 42.5. Q: Sure, but I think there’s two sets of criteria which could be commented on in different ways. 42.6. VC1: I just don’t know the answer to this. 42.7. Q: under section 14, it says that the CSD is an agreement. Is this a set of criteria? 42.8. VC1: yes, they are new criteria. 42.9. C: The text is very confusing, as it implies that ‘the CSD’ can mean different things to different people. 42.10. Q: Why does the slide make the statement “5C does not mean 5 Criteria”? So what does 5C mean then?

42.11. VC1: It’s because the term 5C now refers to 7 criteria and is to be used a label for these criteria.

43. IEEE 802 WG PARs (11-13-0333r1 side #12)

43.1. VC1: This document shows the comments and responses of other IEEE 802 WG PARs that IEEE 802.11 commented on, earlier in the week. 43.2. No questions

44. Other New Business

44.1. VC2: Please can you do your attendance.

45. Adjournment
