Has the WG examined gigabit Serial Bus, IEEE P1394b?

I'm not suggesting you take the time and energy, now, to do this on the 
reflector. I understand that there MIGHT be other considerations that 
affect preferred medium choice for prototype implementations.

But if you take the time to independently inspect P1394b, I think you might 
find its cost / performance characteristics suitable.
