Hi Folks:

Attached are my notes from yesterday's meeting.  Please
let me know if changes are required.

It seems that Mantis and the mail reflector are not responsive.
There are several ballots that need to be called today, and I
am pausing to see if the database and mail reflector will come
back before proceeding with those.

J.H.

Notes:
------

- Reminder of IEEE patent policy.

Old items:
- 1503:  VPI diagram of propertyinst has no vpiArgument
  . Voice vote.  0n/0a
- 1682: Future value functions
  . JH will do a rewrite by 2007-12-12 and call for e-mail vote to close on 2007-12-17.
- 1683: Relaxing rules for building multiclocked properties
  . JH needs to review 1683.

Major items:
- 1932:  LTL Operator [DK, DB]
  . Dependency on 1683.  Also waiting on JH review.  Rewrite clocking of rules
    of Annex F.  Clocking rules in Annex F are incomplete.  DB will generalize 
    the F.3.1.1 and F.3.1.2.  DB also mentioned fixing "if-else".  DB will also
    revise to implement agreed on rewording as discussed with JM.
- 1900:  Checkers [DK]
  . Previous discussion about non-deterministic variables.  Split free variables
    into two kinds.  One will be same as previous free variables.  Other will
    assume only deterministic values.
  . JH will call for an e-mail vote on 1900 to close on 2007-12-17.  VPI changes
    are in a separate proposal, which is not ready for vote yet.

General working items:
- 2005:  Glitches with immediate assertions [ES]
  . JH will call for an e-mail vote to close on 2007-12-17.

  . ???  EC is not working on this at the moment.
- 2088: Covergroups for checkers [TT]
  . Under review (ES and LP).  There are still technical issues.  Some
    discussion of covergroup sampling.  Take to e-mail feedback.
- 2089: Allow checker construct to include final blocks with immediate
  assertions [TT]
  . Under review (ES and LP).  There are still technical issues.

Other items:

- 1987
  . DB will review.
