Background
TG6 Call for Applications closed May 08 (Jacksonville)
Upcoming Call for Proposals requires an IEEE complaint document detailing the applications to be supported by proposals
Applications Matrix has been useful for developing a categorisation scheme and analysing technical requirements
However, insufficient by itself for proposal design and evaluation

Document purpose
To collate identified applications into a single design document which will be distributed with the call for proposals.
To provide a single point of reference (and application reference numbers) which can be used as a common point of reference when evaluating and comparing call for proposal responses.
To identify omitted or erroneous application information requiring updating before distribution with a call for proposals.
Refine the applications matrix categorization scheme through use.

Going forward
The Applications summary document is now the primary applications document
Apps matrix now obsolete, all info from the matrix is contained in the new doc
Seeking to endorse the document at Sep 08 meeting, for distribution with CFP
Comments and feedback on the Summary document are requested, close mid August
