Vince, What are the remaining open issues in this latest draft, you or any of the co-authors are aware of? Since there has been not much feedback, if you think there aren't open issues left, we could issue a working group last call.

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]<mailto:[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. McCann Filename : draft-ietf-paws-protocol-04.txt Pages : 88 Date : 2013-05-07 Abstract: Portions of the radio spectrum that are allocated to licensees are available for non-interfering use. This available spectrum is called "White Space." Allowing secondary users access to available spectrum "unlocks" existing spectrum to maximize its utilization and to provide opportunities for innovation, resulting in greater overall spectrum utilization. One approach to manage spectrum sharing uses databases to report spectrum availability to devices. To achieve interoperability among multiple devices and databases, a standardized protocol must be defined and implemented. This document defines such a protocol, the "Protocol to Access White Space database" (PAWS).
