RevCom Next Steps

• The BRC can contact any member whose comment requires a reply.– We will contact Bruder to try and illicit a change from ABSTAIN

to an APPROVAL vote.– We will contact McHugh and see if he has the latest SB3

Unresolved comments from SB3 report [Unresolved-comments-from-SB3.pdf]• 802.15.1 RevCom Mentor GaryR “Be sure he [McHugh] is reading

the latest documents because I also do not understand his response. I thought the 802.15 responses were very well done.” dated 8Mar02.

– We will deftly contact the remaining six (6) members to determine their vote i.e., Bowman, Engmann, Mehravari, Menchini, Mills, and Thompson.

• The BRC will attend the 20Mar02 RevCom Meeting.
