4) Summary of progress duringMay 25 call and review of telecon minutes

The progress at the previous meeting and summary minutes was read by the chair Peter Ecclesine.

The chair discussed the schedule for implementation of the FCC regulations and the meetings of the IEEE EC needed to approve a possible new project. It was pointed out that the formal implementation of the spectrum in the United States may be delayed if petitions for reconsideration are filed with the FCC. The CBP-SG was, however, proceeding to prepare a draft PAR, to be ready by June 15th, in time to be considered by the IEEE 802 EC in the event that there is no delay.

5) Approval of May 25thtelecon minutes, 802.11-05/527

It was noted that there were some housekeeping errors in the May 25th minutes document. These included an incorrect file name in the document header (should be …527), the incorrect date for the next meeting (should be June 1) and an incorrect meeting closing time (should be EDT not PST). The minutes were approved subject to these corrections. The new revision would be published by Peter on the 802 web page.

6) Discussion of CBP-SGPAR draft, 802.11-05/533

The chair then read through the texts of the draft PAR from document 802.11-05-0533 that had been distributed before the meeting. The rational behind the PAR items was explained as part of the reading. Most of the time was spent on items 13-15the scope, purpose and reason. Some comments and suggested text had been received via email and this wording was also discussed. Some revised text was developed for sections 13-15. The chair agreed to provide a revised draft of the PAR for the next meeting (likely to numbered 802.11-05/0533/r1). The discussion of the PAR texts has been ongoing and will continue at the next teleconference.

7) Discussion of FCC R&O 05-56, R&O 05-57, and prior NPRMs

There was no general discussion of the R&O, other than as part of the discussions of the PAR.
