Hi Walter,

In the submitted BIRD211.1, I think the definition of "Combined" needs to be
amended to include the downstream information.  Right now, the definition of
"Combined" only talks about the cumulative upstream response.

Thanks,
Curtis

Walter,

Thanks for the new BIRD draft.  I looked at the first two pages only, and

have the following comments/requests:

I would move the first flow drawing all the way up to the beginning of the
“Definition

of the issue” section, maybe after the first sentence.  The first sentence
could say

something  like this:

“The current Repeater flow in the IBIS specification can be described
graphically as follows:

[cid:image001.jpg@01D7361E.E6391B60]

This flow has the following issues:

1.

2.

3.”

To me it is confusing to have that drawing after the paragraph which talks
about what

this BIRD proposes…

For all the drawings, I would like to request that we should stay away from
“Upstream”

and “Downstream”.  I thinks using “Channel 1 IR” and “Channel 2 IR” or its
abbreviated

form (“Ch1_IR” and “CH2_IR”) would be a lot less confusing.  Obviously the text
should

also have the corresponding changes.

Least importantly, I would change the name of the first option to something
like “IBIS7.0”

or similar, more than just the number itself, because a number in itself could
mean a lot

of different things.

That’s it for now.  Maybe more later…

Thanks,

Arpad
