All, I have uploaded a new version that incorporates the items discussed at the previous F2F and on the list.
Diff: http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url1=draft-ietf-paws-protocol-03&difftype=--html&submit=Go%21&url2=draft-ietf-paws-protocol-04 Summary of changes: o Expanded the Database Discovery mechanism to describe in more detail pre-configuration with URIs of databases and database- listing services, including mechanisms for updating the configurations when things change * Add database-change field to Available Spectrum Response (Section 4.4.2) o Added fields that are anticipated to be needed by the ETSI harmonized standard for White Space Devices: * Added bandwidth constraints to the Available Spectrum Response (Section 4.4.2) * Updated Available Spectrum Response to return RulesetInfo, rather than just a rule-set identifier * Added optional device-manufacturer and device-model IDs to the DeviceDescriptor (Section 5.2). message. Also moved fccId from this message to the IANA section. * Expanded IANA (Section 9) sections o Clarified restrictions on the specification of the vertices of a Polygon. o Changed default confidence level to 95% for a point with uncertainty o Clarified how devices without absolute time source can use the timestamps in the response messages o Change method names to start with "spectrum.paws." prefix o Added maximum string lengths o Updated author contact info o More typo fixes There are still some TBDs associated with the ETSI additions, but otherwise has addressed all our prior open issues. -vince On Tue, May 7, 2013 at 9:56 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > > A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts > directories. > This draft is a work item of the Protocol to Access WS database Working > Group of the IETF. > > Title : Protocol to Access Spectrum Database > Author(s) : Vincent Chen > Subir Das > Lei Zhu > John Malyar > Peter J.
