Hi all, Yesterday the chairs and Silvana, who is co-editor of the requirements draft, discussed the progress of this draft.
The requirements draft tries to cover quite a number of areas for which timing is relevant, and while there has been significant participation from the cellular and TDM PW communities, there has been inadequate input on most of the other areas. In particular, for the areas * industrial applications * test and measurement * electric power and teleprotection we have no data other than that "pulled out of the air" at the Paris meeting, and no one has expressed interest in providing insights into their requirements. On the one hand TICTOC needs to consider all of the applications that will need to distribute timing, but on the other hand if groups with interest in particular applications do not join in the effort, we will not be able to produce a meaningful document. Please consider this email as a call for participation for the aforementioned areas. If you are working or interested in them, please send an email to the list. If you know people who are, please forward this email to them. If we do not receive input that we believe reliably reflects the requirements of these areas, we will have to drop them from the document, and thus remove them from consideration while working on solutions.
