---++ Meeting Discussion

   * Review of 2019 LCS / proposals finished last meeting
   * Need update of 2020 LCS / Proposal Document
   * Get people to make lists?
   * Next revision 
      * Rob Space Ship
      * Patrick - New document format 
      * Patrick - Make 1076 Open Source Document?  Still a Balloted Standard.  Published on Git
      * Pablo - coding examples 
      * VITAL?
      * Peter Flake - DPI 
      * Jim - DPI, Integers, Space Ship
      * Patrick - configuration of architecture of direct entity instances - 
      * Default component - predefined attribute that creates a component for an entity. 
         * Could a great alternative to fixing configuring direct entity instances 
      * Patrick - copying constraints from on record to another input'range - with arrays
         * records and arrays - copying constraints from a record 
      * Pablo:   Wait on slv(i) ;  -- y <= slv(i) ; ... wait on y ; 
         * what is the equivalent
         *  slv(i) - even if i changes externally, it does not change wrt the wait
         *  slv(i) - limit i to process local
         *  slv(i) - if a change in i results in the value changing, then the wait on wakes up
         *  slv(i) - if slv of the initial i changes or i changes then wake up - wait on i, slv(i)*1  nn because it can be composed.
         *
              k := i ;
              v_prev_value := slv(k);
              wait on slv until slv(k) /= v_prev_value ;
              wait on i, slv until slv(k) /= v_prev_value or i'event;
      * Derived everything
         * derived integers - new 
         * derived enumerations - tagged enumerations
         * derived records - tagged records
         * derived protected types - extend a fifo to a scoreboard.   
         * derived entity - see old (1999 ish) OO proposals
      * Abstract packages
         * defines a generic type and defines abstract operations for that type
         * Goal of being able to use numerics from integer, real, numeric_std, fixed_point.
