>This contribution to the August 4-7, 1997 T1A1.3 meeting provides a 
>proposed baseline text for a new American National Standard �Performance
>Parameters, Objectives, and Measurement Methods for Public Internet
>Services�.  The attached baseline text has been implemented consistent
>with agreements reached by T1A1.3 at its May 1997 meeting, including
>consideration of (1) the T1 Letter Ballot comments provided in
>T1A1.3/97-042R1, (2) the skeletal outline provided in T1A1.3/97-044,
>and (3) other relevant technical contributions (e.g., T1A1.3/97-039R1,
>-048).  In this proposed baseline text, the standard is provisionally
>denoted �T1.5IP� rather than �T1.5Internet� to emphasize that its scope
>is initially focused on characterizing Internet Protocol (IP) packet
>transfer performance.  It is proposed that T1A1.3 adopt the attached
>text as its working baseline for T1.5IP, and establish a schedule that
>will enable the standard to be submitted to T1A1 and T1 for Letter
>Ballot during the 3rd Quarter of 1998.  <end Abstract T1A1.3/97-044R1>
