  9. 802.11 Style Guide • See 11-09-1034-07-0000-wg11-style-guide.doc • We updated 802.11 WG Style Guide based on 2012 IEEE Standards Style Manual and consistency changes in final publication of the 802.11 standard • Editor’s responsibility includes checking the 2012 IEEE Standards Style Manual when creating or updating drafts. https://development.standards.ieee.org/myproject/Public/mytools/draft/styleman.pdf • Submissions with draft text should conform to both the WG11 Style Guide and IEEE Standards Style Manual • Note that the Style Guide evolves with our practice Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation from slide 3/6 of 11-13/0276r2 by Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems)

  12. MIB style, Visio and Frame practices • I’m going to suggest going forward we use a single style with appropriately set tabs,  and use leadingTabs to distinguish the syntax and description parts. (Adrian Stephens Feb 9, 2010) •  Keep embedded figures using visio as long as possible • Near the end of sponsor ballot,  turn these all into .wmf (windows meta file) format files (you can do this from visio using “save as”).   Keep separate files for the .vsd source and the .wmf file that is linked to from frame. • Frame templates for 11aa, 11ac, 11af • Text version of MIB is available (2012, ae2012, aa2012, ad2012) Adrian Stephens, Intel Corporation from slide 6/6 of 11-13/0276r2 by Peter Ecclesine (Cisco Systems)
