)

A motion (Charles Dawson, Dennis Brophy) was made to accept the
resolutions to issues listed in lines 3-31 for inclusion in the
standard.  The motion passed unanimously.

The committees resolved all issue they are going to resolve except for
Mantis 2606.  By 19 June 2009 Dave Rich will have the issues prepared
for review and approval for the 29 June 2009 Champions meeting.  

Mehdi discussed voting on Mantis 2606.  There were not enough votes to
pass the motion as Mehdi, as chair, was left with the option to make or
break a tie.  Mehdi made a tie and the motion did not pass.  Mehdi
shared with the committee that this issue would probably require more
time than the committee has to come to a resolution.   It might be best
to hold this issue over to the next revision of the standard.  Being
that the motion failed and no alternate motion to resolve the issue was
brought before the SV-EC, the SV-EC will meet at a scheduled meeting
this coming Monday (22 June 2009)  to close on the committee's response
to Mantis 2606.

The SV-EC's resolution of Mantis 2606 will then be sent on to the
Champions to review at their next meeting.

Chair Pieper has asked Dave Rich to mark as "Editor" the state for the
issues just passed.
