12,000 good reasons
IEEE deluged by comments on Draft-N
When the IEEE 'agreed' on version 1.0 of the Draft-N poposal, it wasn't expecting over 12,000 comments on it. This has serious implications for the release of a Draft 2.0 version, but probably won't delay next year's slated date for ratification. It all depends whether any of the comments are significantly worthy, and whether the big silicon manufacturers are prepared to render the already released Draft-N kit incompatible with the eventual 802.11n standard. Sources we've spoken to suggest that it's possible to do a hell of a lot with the firmware in these kits, since the deluge of comments weren't completely unexpected.
