There have been attempts to make progress on WAPI NP at a series of CRM teleconferences • In San Diego, the US NB proposed that progress could be made on resolving the WAPI NP comments by teleconference • IEEE objective is to expunge false commentary on 802.11 security • SC6 subsequently agreed to hold comment resolution meetings (The CRMs were held • 10 Aug, 31 Aug, 15 Sept held so far, 21 Nov scheduled (probably last!) • US, UK, Switzerland, China, Korea and IEEE 802 have been represented • Convenor: Mr Seung Ok Lim (Korea) – also new WG1 Chair • After the first two teleconference made little progress, it was decided to use e-mail as well • Hundreds of e-mails resulted Andrew Myles, Cisco

The discussion in San Francisco decided to send 802 standards to ISO/IEC under certain conditions • Summary from San Francisco 802 plenary meeting • There was consensus that it was important for 802 to send standards to ISO/IEC for “registration” • Need to guarantee that these will not be edited without the explicit agreement of the 802 owner • An implementation plan will be further explored during the November plenary Andrew Myles, Cisco
