Greg,

 

I agree with Gian Paolo on his points on section 5.4.

 

I think we should have:

 

- DLL-64 / 5.4.2.4        Mandatory if DLL-62 Supported

 

Tom will need to advise on how we represent that.

 

I would also suggest that we delete: (notional)

 

Hope to see you all in Texas.

 

Cheers, Matt.

Greg, 
        Just about DLL-1. 
DLL-1 should be removed if it refer to section 3.2. 
Making DLL-1 to refer to 3.2.1 (instead of 3.2) makes the second comment
superseded. 

I am not sure I agree about your view of section 5.4 and I would rather
use "conditional items" also because as far as I see this is the only
case (i.e. no big burden implied). However we can go Pink with the
present form (except the corrections you agreed) and discuss the matter
in San Antonio to generate RIDs (if needed). 

One more comment: DLL-60 says "Time Correlation Process (notional)". 
The term notional is mentioned only once in the document (i.e. here). 
Should its meaning in PICS context be clarified (or alternatively
deleted)? 

Ciao 

Gian Paolo

A few very quick comments. 
Of course there may be more for similar cases.

----------------------------------------------------

A2.2 PICS 
Should DLL-1 better refer to 3.2.1 instead of 3.2? 
** Yes 3.2.1 ** 

DLL-1 should be removed as individual subsections of 3.2 are addressed
and moreover DLL-1 as it stands now is incorrect/confusing as it
includes also options? 
** We need users to comply with both 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. The subparts of
3.2.2. are useful to see because they contain valid values associated
with these parameters. ** 

Why the description of Option 1 is with lower case o (i.e. o.1 instead
of O.1 as in the table)? ** I think it was a typo. It was corrected as
all capital letters in my version **
Why DLL-61 is in bold?   (this is not the only one in bold...) ** I
think this is Tom's way of showing a heading. **

Is it correct to mark all the items within e.g. 5.4 as optional? ** Yes
that was deliberately done by the WG **
If you read section 5.4, it contains mandatory requirements and options.
This was actually a case for conditional items as follows:
- DLL-63 / 5.4.2.1        Optional 
- DLL-64 / 5.4.2.4        Mandatory if DLL-62 Supported
Is it correct giving up about conditional items in PICS? ** In this
case, yes **

Moreover 
DLL-61 / 5.4 should not be listed as the individual requirements are
listed
DLL-63 should refer to 5.4.2.1 and not to 5.4.2 ** I agree, DLL-63
refers to 5.4.2.1 **
As section 5.4 is written, it is not visible that this feature is
optional ==> should 5.4.1 be made optional? ** yes **

PICS take - as expected - several pages. 
Why not shortening some cases as e.g. DLL-52 / 5.2 ?
In other words why not having only a row for DLL-52 and removing the 8
following rows?
Alternatively why not indenting the following 8 row and using
identifiers as DLL-52.x?
** Up to Tom Gannett how best to deal with indexing or showing subsets
of information within the PICS ** 
** We could shorten the DLL PICS, however I tried to strike a compromise
between the shortest PICS Proforma possible vs conveying some redundancy
that helps the user check through the items by listing the key ones in
detail. If I hide too much information, people might have the tendency
to forget about it. Explicitly listing it (but not regurgatating the
entire text) seemed to be the best compromise ** 

**Thoughts from other SLP WG members ??? **

Dear SLP WG members, 

Tom Gannett has provided us now with a pre-approval version for the CESG
of the Proximity-1 Space Data Link Protocol.

Please review the attached documents and send me and Tom any comments
you have (redlines of the clean version would work, if you have the
bandwidth to send a 20 Megabyte file !) to me and Tom by Sept. 13.

There are two files in the CWE directory below. One is a red-lined
version so that you can see the changes made and also a clean version.
