Process for D7.01
Following update to Windows XP SP3, graphics embedded in the P802.11n draft Frame source files stopped working properly.
They were cut and paste into individual Visio files and links to the .wmf version of these files were inserted into the Frame source.
D7.01 has been reviewed (thankyou Tomo!) to ensure that there are no significant changes.
Pagination is the same
Only actual change is version / date / copyright year

Resolutions were proposed for all but one of the Editorial comments and all of the Minor Technical comments assigned to the Editor.
Speculative editing of D7.02 was performed.
D7.02 was reviewed by Eldad, Doug and Naveen – Thankyou!
