SCSI / ATA Translation (SAT) revision 8a (sat-r08a.pdf) is now available
on http://www.t10.org/drafts.htm <http://www.t10.org/drafts.htm>;  and
http://www.t10.org/new.htm <http://www.t10.org/new.htm>; .
The direct link is http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/drafts/sat/sat-r08a.pdf.
SAT revision 8a incorporates 963 letter ballot comment resolutions
identified with status "Completed" as documented in 06-121r2, "SAT
revision 8 letter ballot comment resolution as of SATr08"
(http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-121r2.pdf).
Two proposals listed below incorporate resolutions to most of the
remanining letter ballot comments:
*	06-216r1 SAT - Block Mapping Issues
http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-216r1.pdf
*	06-291r1 SAT- ATA PASS-THROUGH additional sense code and other
clarifications http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.06/06-291r1.pdf
There are some 70 letter ballot comments marked with the term "DISCUSS"
to be addressed in the July SAT WG that are neither incorporated into
the latest draft nor in the two propoposals listed above. Those
remaining LB comments relate to the TEST UNIT READY command translation,
the READ/WRITE BUFFER commands, the REQUEST SENSE command, the SEND
DIAGNOSTIC self-test function, START STOP UNIT (SLEEP, vs STANDBY, vs
STANDBY IMMEDIATE), and a handful of scattered comments that are mostly
editorial.
