Hi John, Here's the connection restoration section (which we think should be better titled as "Fault Handling, Protection, and Connection Restoration"). We have some place holders for more text to be filled in, but here's what we have so far. - Chin --On May 11, 2009 5:51:40 PM -0400 John Vollbrecht <jrv@internet2.edu> wrote:
We will have a call Wed at 9ET - call information
Call: +1-734-615-7474 (PSTN CALL-OUT DOES NOT WORK) or +1-866-411-0013 (toll free US/Canada Only) Enter access code: 0155180
I attach an updated version of the strawman. It includes a number of changes - I suggest that if you are looking at it fresh you turn off showing changes -- I actually tried to turn it off without accepting changes but when I tried to send it that way it always turned tracking back on. Maybe there's a way -----
I would like to discuss the strawman on Wed. The section under Job Control is basically what Sebastien sent - I would like to discuss that, and then perhaps the section on reservation that Guy is working on or the naming section. If you have suggestions please let me know. I believe that Guy will not be able to make the call Wed.
Guy is setting up meetings at Chapel hill. We can talk about that. We hope to have at least one joint meeting with the NML group and to have a session where we invite other groups in to explain what we are trying to do and how we think other groups will fit. We could try to identify the appropriate groups.
Anyone working on mods for the document are encouraged to submit them in a strawman form asap.
We should review who will be contributors - notes from minutes a few weeks ago --
