[SLS-CC] Fwd: Proposed Joint Working Group Meeting to Discuss Generic Frame Procedure

Thu Mar 19 08:32:59 UTC 2020

Thank you for sharing the documentation, Ken.

As C&S Chairman, unfortunately, I cannot endorse this initiative. 
Back in Darmstadt, together with other WGs and Agencies representatives 
(SLS Area Plenary), I asked to have a joint face to face meeting to allow 
the OPT WG to explain this proposal.
I understand that a face to face will not take place soon, very likely, 
but I doubt we can have a meaningful online discussion with more than a 
limited number of people involved.
Given the need to prioritise during this difficult period, It is my 
opinion that this discussion is of lower priority for the C&S WG at this 
point in time.

I hope that all of you and your family are fine and manage to stay so in 
the coming weeks.
Massimo

Dear colleagues, 

The Optical Communications Working Group has been evaluating the ITU 
Generic Frame Procedure (GFP) for use in the optical communications 
protocol stack.  This may also be of interest in RF links, and so Bernie 
Edwards is coordinating a joint teleconference on April 17, per his email 
message below.  It is intended to be a strictly educational briefing, and 
while Massimo is not available at that time, it may be of interest to 
other members of our working group.

If I’ve done it right, the WebEx meeting invitation is also included 
below, along with the attachments that will be discussed.

-Ken

Hello,

At the end of the last face-to-face meeting, the Optical Communications 
Working Group took an action to set up a joint telecon before the Spring 
meeting in Alabama to discuss SLS-OPT members’ desire to incorporate the 
ITU Generic Frame Procedure (GFP) in a SLS-OPT document.  Specifically 
Klaus-Juergen and I were asked to explain the reasoning for this desire 
for GFP and to coordinate with the Space Link Coding and Synchronization 
Working Group and the Space Link Protocols Working Group.

I apologize that it took us this long to have the necessary material, 
including presentation material, ready.  I didn’t want to schedule a 
meeting until I knew we had everything ready.

I would like to propose a relatively short telecon on Thursday, 16 April 
or Friday, 17 April if possible.  I was thinking somewhere between an hour 
and two hours.  If on Thursday, I know key members of SLS-OPT are 
unavailable from 7 am to 9 am PST.  There are no time constraints on 
Friday.  Not every member of SLS-OPT wants to participate in a joint 
telecon, though I do have some members in Japan who would like to 
participate if the date / time works out.

I leave it up to SLS-C&M and SLS-SLP if you want to invite your entire 
working group to this first telecon.  It may make more sense to have a 
limited discussion now and then a fuller discussion at the face-to-face 
meeting in May (assuming that still happens given the various travel 
restrictions around the world these days due to the coronavirus). 
Klaus-Juergen and I are open to any suggestions anybody has.

After we agree on a date / time, we will send out the read ahead material.

Respectfully,
Bernie Edwards
