Alexander: Re:
Pursuant to the discussion of #45 (send buffer access) that this #46 depends upon, I would suggest to suspend the review until we clear situation around #45.
While it is within your rights to suggest that we "suspend the review" of these items, I object to your timing. The issues have already had a first vote. You can raise concerns about them but I see no reason that we should cease to make progress on the wording when the vast majority (I don't recall if the vote was unanimous but it was not close) have agreed to them. Perhaps more importantly, your objections have been discussed from the first that Erez brought up the issues. Frankly, I have not seen anything in your objections that changes the extensive discussion on these issues. While it may be that you have changed your position (and Intel's?) on them, I strongly doubt that others will be convinced. In my opinion, Erez should definitely proceed with the reviews. If you want to object to the solutions, you will have an opportunity when the issues come up for their second vote the week after next. Bronis
Best regards.
Alexander
