4. SMC Topics

No SMC topics were discussed at the meeting.

After approval of comment resolution at the T10 September plenary,
SMC has been forwarded to ANSI for further processing.

5. SSC Topics

5.1 SSC comment resolution. (97-204r1)

Gary Stevens provided his Proposed Resolution of T10 Letter Ballots
on SSC along with revision 11 of SSC.

George Penokie reminded the group about the conflict between the
 Data Compression Page and the Select Data Compression Algorithm
field in the Device Configuration Page.  Gary will add language
specifying that the Select Data Compression Algorithm field is
ignored when the Data Compression Page is present.

A long discussion was held on the interaction between the Format
Unit command and Mode Select.  Gary will add language specifying
that a Unit Attention will occur after a Format Unit command.

Gary will make a few other editorial changes to SSC as suggested
by the group and prepare revision 12 of SSC to forward to NCITS

The working group unanimously recommended  that revision 12 of SSC
be approved by the T10 Plenary as resolving the SSC letter ballot
comments.
