Steven reviewed the open action items.

---++++ Liaison Reports



---++++ Inter-operability Testing
Steven introduced questions from John and Gauraw where more detail is needed on intended syntax between Verilog and VHDL.  The group discussed the history behind the two standards.

Duth suggested compiling a more comprehensive set of questions and issues, and Steve recommended using the reflector for that purpose.

Dave G suggested that the version keyword should be scoped per envelope.  Steve indicated that this would require blocks to be terminated with =`pragma protect end reset= for Verilog.  Dave G pointed out that unencrypted version pragmas would be a security concern if they specified security-sensitive semantics.
