INFORMATION FROM PRODUCT/PROCESS CR: 07/16/03 July CMP Meeting Craig Suellentrop with Qwest presented the response for this CR. Because of the systems work necessary to select sync testing and request the protocol for testing, this CR will be crossed over to Systems and will be discussed at the Systems meeting 7/17/03. Covad agreed to cross over the change request to Systems.

06/18/03 June CMP Meeting John Berard with Covad presented this CR. Covad would like to have the capability of sync testing for line sharing maintenance and would also like to have sync testing available for line splitting and loop splitting, both provisioning and maintenance. Craig Suellentrop said that he received the e-mail from John about the 102 characters allowed in the remarks section of CEMR and if the character limit would not be enough room to identify the protocol for sync testing. John said that the remarks field is written over and suggested use of another field. John said that as an interim solution, the remarks field could be used until a longer-term systems solution can be implemented. Qwest will provide a response on this CR at the July CMP meeting and this CR will be moved to Presented status.

From: Berard, John [jberard@covad.com] To: Linda Sanchez-Steinke, Craig Suellentrop, Heidi Moreland, Michael Zulevic Subject: RE: PC051403-1 Clarification Meeting Minutes Date: 6/17/03 Linda:

I did check with our repair group and it would be no problem to provide the protocol when a trouble ticket is opened... However, for the lineshare family of products there is only 102 characters allowed in the comment section of CEMR. If you would like Covad to provide this when we open the ticket the comment space limitations would need to be removed. Or allow us to use another field to provide this information.
