RE: Liason to IEEE 802

["Wijnen, Bert (Bert)" <bwijnen@lucent.com>]

Thanks for the update and background info.

I am not sure if Dan wants to be a "generic liason" to IEEE 802
(I or we can ask if that is what we want). I just wanted to be 
sure that we are aware of what we have agreed upon in the past,
and that if we do anything new/additional that we do not step
on toes by accident. 

So I think we should at least list Dan on our liasons web page.
I assume it is Leslie who needs to tell the secreatriat, right?

Thanks,
Bert
