Results of CESG poll beginning 30 April 2020 and ending 14 May 2020:

                 Abstain:  1 (25%) (Merri)
Approve Unconditionally:  3 (75%) (Burleigh, Calzolari, Wilmot)
Approve with Conditions:  0 (0%) Disapprove with Comment:  0 (0%)
CONDITIONS/COMMENTS:

     Scott Burleigh (Approve Unconditionally):   Nits:

1.  The 3rd paragraph of 1.3 refers to "the four 
classes of codes considered" but lists five.

2.  Shouldn't LDPC be included in Figure 2-2?

     Jonathan Wilmot (Approve 
Unconditionally):  Not a condition, but consider 
updating some of the 2.1 Introduction to not 
scare off the younger 
engineers.  "microprocessor-based hardware will 
result"  sounds dated. Microprocessors are common 
with FPGA science data systems pushing into the 
gigabits.  Similar comments apply to other 
paragraphs and to Figure 2-1. Mission 
applications send operational data, video, 
software uploads, configuration, not just "A 
METHOD TO INVESTIGATE PHYSICAL PHENOMENA BY USING 
THEIR INSTRUMENTS IN SPACE" None of this is a 
real issue with the technical content.

     Jonathan Wilmot (Approve with Conditions):   SANA registry link is broken

https://sanaregistry.org/r/ndmxml/ndmxml-1.0-tdm-2.0.xsd

This seems to be a common problem with CCSDS 
books, is there a better way to deal with links?

     Gian Paolo Calzolari (Approve with 
Conditions):   In C2 SANA CONSIDERATIONS change FROM
(*****) A null checksum. If used, the file checksum value shall be set to 0x00.
TO
(*****) A null checksum. If used, the file 
checksum value shall be set to 0x00 as per clause 4.2.2.4

In fact the document defines
4.2.2.4 The null checksum algorithm (identified 
by checksum type 15) shall be implemented. The 
null checksum algorithm shall be simply to set 
the value of the checksum to zero.
-----------------------------------
Registry https://sanaregistry.org/r/checksum_identifiers is not finalized
1) references to [ccsds-727.0-B-4] shall be 
replaced by reference to Issue 5 (I guess this 
should be automatic but better remarking).
2) the reference for value 15 NULL shall be to this document clause 4.2.2.4
3) link for value 3 CRC-32 has a broven link to 
[text-IEEE Standard for Ethernet] --> 
https://sanaregistry.org/r/references/records/202
4) for item #1 link shall be to latest document 
CCSDS 211.2-B-3 (BTW, the current link [ccsds-211.2-B-2] is a broken link)
