Draft status
• At November session, the TG instructed the editor to produce a D2.0 for ballot based on resolved comments and a few motions (y/n/a=59/1/4=98.3%)
• However, the WG motion to take the draft to ballot failed (y/n/a=33/12/9=73.3%)
• As a result, D1.4 (instead of D2.0) was released following the November session
• D1.4 is effectively the draft motioned by the TG for D2.0 at the November session

Expectation for D2.0
• D2.0 = D1.4 plus the following– Incorporate revised resolution for CID 3398 in 11/1566r1
(Antenna Indication in VHT Capabilities Info)• Editor missed this when preparing D1.4
– Any additional changes approved this session

Process for motioning resolutions
• Change from what we did last time
• A single document, “11/1430 LB178 D1.0 comments for motion”, will contain resolutions ready for motion
• 11/1430r2 reflects resolutions through end of ad-hoc last week
• Tabs in the spreadsheet list comments awaiting motion
• Tabs labeled with ad-hoc name (GEN, MU, COEX, MAC, PHY) and the date the resolution was strawpolled

Draft status
• D1.2 was released 7 October 2011– Reflects resolutions that passed motion during the September 2011
session
• D1.3 is available in the member’s area– Reflects resolutions that passed strawpoll during the telecons since
September and a few resolutions from November ad-hoc at Cisco
– See spreadsheet in 11/1430r2:• Look for non-blank “Edit status”
– I = implemented, N = not implemented
• Also, look at “Edited in draft” column– Indicates draft revision where change was made
