Hi All, David Witkowski is talking about 802.21 type multi device handover, it is not within 802.11, but 802.11 solutions are outside - Wireless Broadband Alliance, etc. Clearly David is wrong on full stacks in IEEE 802.11. It is so hard to do a full stack in 802.11. No operator coalition can drive the IEEE 802 Executive Committee to allow upper layers in 802.11 vs IETF. I think civic/muni networks should focus on serving the poor part of towns, not the county/region nets. At IEEE 802 this week, we finally stopped trying to compromise with 802.15.3 UWB, who sought equality with Wi-Fi and for Wi-Fi changes to coexist with UWB. IEEE 802.11 provided an FCC Mid Band NOI Reply comment responding to IEEE Broadcast Society charges that Wi-Fi does not work. 17/1798r3 mentor.ieee.org 802.11 closing report 17/1561r0 mentor.ieee.org 802.11ax failed second working group letter ballot, showing the Special Interest Groups are no longer active in 802.11. In the past, one member would provide all the do not approve comments, and the others would vote approve, so the member with the negative comments had great leverage in comment resolution. Now with 3300 comments from 81 people, there is no evidence of SIG leverage. petere
