21 Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0753r2July 2009 Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems)Slide 21 Editorial Streamlining Focus is on consistency across all TGs: –Completed Streamlined ANA processes – 07/0827r0 Consistent format for REDLINE contributions across TGs – 07/0788r0 Consistent process for editorial comment resolution across TGs (WG & Sponsor) – 07/2050r0 –Guideline for technical vs. editorial, sample editorial comment responses Format for comment reporting across TGs (WG & Sponsor) – 07/1990r0 (tool in 07/2116r0) Stable numbering method (See 07/2810r0) Consistent naming of redlines (See 07/2810r0) Draft templates for FRAME (no Word) to help train new editors more rapidly –Under Construction (in priority order) 1.Revise the editors guideline 2.Mentoring program – Name a mentor for each new editor 3.Request in future Plenary sessions Mondays 7:30pm Frame surgery 4.MIB element numbering and compiling – publish a rolled-up MIB of k/r/y 5.Guideline on non-technical front matter 6.Guideline describing expected editorial development and maturity of draft through stages in 802.11 for consistency across TGs 7.Guidelines for primitives – ARC to consider

22 Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0753r2July 2009 Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems) Numbering of Annexes and Clauses Proposal: TGMb will fix the ordering of annexes –Ample bad precedent set by 11k –Bibliography should be the final annex per IEEE Standards Style Guide Clause numbering has similar issue during rollup –TGn clause 3a, 11r clause 11a, 11y clause 11.9a REVmb numbering will stay using Amendment style numbering until the very last possible moment.

24 Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0753r2July 2009 Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems) Publication Work Plan Note: to be included in the editors operations manual Here is the workflow we have used for a number of years with IEEE staff on publication of 802.11 publications: 1.Editors provide FRAME source and any freestanding graphics (Powerpoint, Visio. TIF) to staff at time of REVCOM submission. 2.Editors provide a list of requests editorial corrections no later than REVCOM approval date. 3.Staff prepares a publication draft and highlights changes they have made and questions they need addressed or confirmed. This draft is sent to Task Group Editor and the Working Group Technical Editor (me). This typically occurs about 2-3 weeks after approval for publication, since the preparation work is usually (but not always) begun ahead of approval. This is also typically the draft peer reviewed by IEEE staff. 4.The Task Group Editor responds to all questions on domain specific questions, with copy to Working Group editor (me). This typically takes about 3-5 days. 5.The Working Group Technical Editor reviews responses from the Task Group editor, completes any responses, and provides a list of WG officers and voting members valid for the document as of the opening day of the Sponsor ballot. This typically only takes one additional day from the prior step as most of the work is done in parallel by the two editors. 6.Final draft is submitted by the IEEE staff to Working Group Technical Editor and Task Group Editor for sign-off. Any changes from the responses or IEEE peer review are highlighted and explained. This typically takes only one or two days more after the responses are received from the editors. 7.Task Group Editor gives final approval. No changes are expected. This usually occurs within 24 hours. 8.Working Group Technical Editor signs off and provides draft to Working Group Chair. No changes are expected. This usually occurs within 24 hours and in parallel with the previous step. 9.Working Group Chair sends email to sponsor and IEEE staff letting them know the Working Group has signed off on the publication process.

25 Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0753r2July 2009 Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems) Terry Cole on Changes to MIB elements You can incrementally add to a MIB element without deprecation at any level. That is, add new values and meaning pairs. You can change the description of a MIB element without deprecation at any level. That is add new text clarifying or even changing the meaning of the element to keep up with the standard. I would advise deprecation when changing the definition of some value of a MIB from one thing to another. However, I don't know of any rules requiring this. Slide 25

26 Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0753r2July 2009 Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems) Publications: lessons learned When quoting baseline text inaccurately, the baseline text is changed whether or not the changes were marked. The IEEE staff will actually do the appropriate changes as if the task group had actually intended to change the baseline. –Drafts can minimally quote baseline text to minimize such changes –Should revisit the decision to include full context during insertion Full Annex titles have to be shown in the amendment; more importantly included normative vs. informative –TGk inadvertently changed Annex A to be fully informative –TGr battled to fix Annex A but caused ripples –TGy 08-1215r1 has brief review of significant things changed for publication –In editors operations manual and during balloting, should comment that Annexes should be fully titled with good reason to vote No in balloting Slide 26

27 Submission doc.: IEEE 802.11-09/0753r2July 2009 Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems) Publications: lessons learned (contd) Acronym rules are inconsistent –Styleguide doesnt include definitions –Every document is treated as standalone, thus first acronym reference must be spelled out. Even though, other amendments or baseline may have defined and used the acronym earlier. –Goal should be to have as few changes between the final balloted amendment and final published amendment. How do we deal with subjective decisions made by the IEEE copy editors as their styles vary? Booleans should be capitalized: TRUE and FALSE –when set to Booleans should be lower case: is true and is false (raise the issue with Style Guide update) Slide 27
