- Here is the schedule for currently planned IEEE P1003 committee meetings
- and related events. (Courtesy of Doug Gwyn: I lost my notes on this.)
-
- 14-Oct Revised spec (P1003/D5) online and in IEEE office
- Start of document review, mass mailing to Working Group
- 01-Nov Technical review, Steering Committee meets in Dallas for
- editing session
- 04-Nov Master copy of document to IEEE
- 08-Nov Mail document for balloting
- Technical review and ballot resolution begins too
- 11-Dec End of balloting
- Ballot resolution continues
- 13..15-Jan P1003 meeting in Denver to review comments and
- proposed responses
- 21..31-Jan Window during which ballot responses can be changed
- 15-Feb Final document submitted to IEEE Standards Board
- 22-Mar IEEE Standards Board meeting
-
- P1003/D5 will be Draft Five and is intended to contain changes
- agreed upon at the recent meeting near Washington, D.C.
- I will make it available as the current draft when I get
- a copy of it. This will probably be after the Steering
- Committee meeting at the beginning of November.
-
- The "Final document" referred to here is the one which
- is intended to become the trial use standard. That will stand
- for some period of time, possibly a year, and then be followed
- by the real standard, which will be developed from experience
- gained from the trial use standard.
-
- The meeting in Dallas this November is of a small group and is
- basically for technical editing, to pull the document into a
- more self-consistent form. The next full meeting of the committee
- will be in January in Denver, in conjunction with the USENIX
- conference, and is hoped to be the last one before the trial
- use document is submitted to IEEE.
-
- This schedule may slip if any form of the document is not ready
- at its particular deadline.
-
- There will probably be a meeting in April, place indeterminate
- at the moment, and likely another in June in Atlanta in conjunction
- with the USENIX Conference there.
-
- Some P1003 committee members will be attending upcoming X3J11
- committee meetings to help promote coordination between the
- two committees.
-
- Volume-Number: Volume 2, Number 4
