  Approve with Conditions:  1 (16.67%) (Calzolari)
  Disapprove with Comment:  0 (0%)

CONDITIONS/COMMENTS:

Peter Shames (Approve Unconditionally): Gippo got it right.

Gian Paolo Calzolari (Approve with Conditions): 
The document claims that Table F-1 for ITU/IEEE 
Frequency Bands is taken from Reference [E3] but 
this is actually not consitent with Table 2-1 of 
https://public.ccsds.org/Pubs/320x0m7.pdf

The main issue is for the (two) incorrect vakues 
for the row "Ka-Band SRS 27–40 GHz" but there are 
also formatting issues for rows "VHF-Band 30–300 
MHz" and "UHF-Band 300–1000 MHz".

Table F-1 shall be fully consistent with 
https://public.ccsds.org/Pubs/320x0m7.pdf

CESG E-Poll Identifier: CESG-P-2018-03-003 
Approval to release CCSDS 508.1-R-1, Re-entry 
Data Message (Red Book, Issue 1) for CCSDS Agency review
Results of CESG poll beginning 30 March 2018 and ending 23 April 2018:

                  Abstain:  1 (16.67%) (Calzolari)

  Approve with Conditions:  1 (16.67%) (Burleigh)
  Disapprove with Comment:  0 (0%)

CONDITIONS/COMMENTS:

Scott Burleigh (Approve with Conditions): I think 
the language in Annex G needs to be clarified. If 
certain metadata keywords are "optional", how can 
they be "required"? And if certain metadata 
keywords are "required", how can this Annex be 
Informative rather than Normative?

CESG E-Poll Identifier: CESG-P-2018-03-004 
Approval to release CCSDS 355.1-R-1, Space Data 
Link Security Protocol—Extended Procedures (Red 
Book, Issue 1) for CCSDS Agency review
Results of CESG poll beginning 31 March 2018 and ending 23 April 2018:

                  Abstain:  0 (0%)
  Approve Unconditionally:  5 (83.33%) (Barkley, Merri, Shames, Cola, Moury)
  Approve with Conditions:  1 (16.67%) (Burleigh)
  Disapprove with Comment:  0 (0%)

CONDITIONS/COMMENTS:

Erik Barkley (Approve Unconditionally): A comment 
only and just to note, in the references there is 
forthcoming recommendation referenced:
"Symmetric Encryption. Proposed Draft Recommendation for Space Data System
Practices (Proposed Red Book), CCSDS 353.0-R. Washington, D.C.: CCSDS, October
2008."

Is this reference correct? Has this in fact 
remained proposed for almost 10 years?




Scott Burleigh (Approve with Conditions): Annex D 
is tagged as Informative, but there are "shall" 
statements throughout. I think either the "shall" 
statements should be rewritten or the Annex should be Normative.
