Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802 Patent Policy and Procedures <http:// /guides/bylaws/sb-bylaws.pdf>, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair <stuart.kerry@> as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE 802.11 Working Group. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at <patcom@>.

Other Outputs
• The editorial work of the editor (and helpers) is to produce a draft and accompanying documentation. This draft must be technically consistent with the input documents, it cannot resolve omissions or errors in the input documents • In working with the draft, possible omissions were identified and documented. A draft has to be complete before going to letter ballot, and these possible omissions were identified as requiring possible technical resolution outside the scope of the drafting process. • Volunteer authors came forward to create technical submissions to TGn in order to address the possible omissions.
