T10 Report - November 27, 2000

T10 met last in Monterey, CA, on Thursday November 2, 2000 with 45 people

present. Membership is now at 42 voting organizations.

ANSI BSR has approved SPI-3, which will be published soon as

NCITS.336:2000.

NCITS has approved SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) Amendment #1, which is at

ANSI BSR for approval.

The resolution of the comments from the first FCP-2 letter ballot was

approved and, due to the extensive changes, a second letter ballot on

forwarding FCP-2 was issued. This letter ballot closes December 21st.

About two-thirds of the SPC-2 letter ballot comments have proposed

resolutions.

Hopes for a letter ballot on forwarding SST were dashed by an editing

session that found substantial issues. It will be quicker to resolve these

issues prior to the letter ballot.

The SCSI VI Protocol (SVP) was renamed SCSI RDMA Protocol (SRP) to reflect

that the protocol works for more than Virtual Interface, in particular

InfiniBand (tm).

A new project was approved on Serial Bus Protocol - 3 (SBP-3).

The next plenary meeting of T10 will be January 18, 2001 in Lake Buena

Vista, CA at the Grosvenor Resort (407-828-4444), hosted by Adaptec. The

meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday. Several ad hoc meetings are

also scheduled:
