Re: Working with IEEE 802

[Abdussalam Baryun <[e-mail]>]

This coordination issue with other organisations related to standards is
very important and affects pretty much our work, I suggest that the General
Area opens a WG for this important coordination, many information are
needed to be documented and focused on. IMHO, getting information about
contacts will help each IETF WG separately, but what about the decisions
for the whole IETF coordination with other SDOs especially when we get more
deep in future. Having contacts between managers in SDOs is good start but
usually in IETF our managers decisions reform after looking into the IETF
WG ideas and decisions. Therefore, my suggestion is opening a discussion of
why not future coordination through WG? or is it right time? or do we need
a new work-process?

I don't know the answers, does any one know?

Best Regards
