	  2374_D5_packed_enum_arrays_v3.htm as the resolution to this issue.

              Move: Brad - approve the proposal for Mantis item 2374
            Second: Shalom
            Passed unanimously


2.3 2237  SV-AC VPI additions for 1667

	  last review and on 04/09/2008 we PASSED it again (unanimous).
	- The proposal was deferred by the Champions in the April 24th, 2008
 	  conference call until 1503 is completed. 
        - Mantis 1503 is now in the resolved state.

              Move: Shalom - approve the proposal for Mantis item 2237
            Second: Brad
            Passed unanimously


2.4 2008  SV-BC Glitch problem in unique/priority if/case
        - fixed
	- Approved by the Champions in April 10 conference call (1 opposed)
	- Editor requested a better note. 
	- When updating the proposal another set of changes were made
	- On May 12, 2008 the SV-BC approved the latest proposal draft 
	  (2008_D5_deglitch_if_case.V3.htm). The vote was not unanimous:

	  Opposed: Stu (ambiguous severity level will lead to implementation
		   differences that will be problematic for users)
          Abstain: Heath (agrees with Stu but no enough to oppose)
        - Clarification from Shalom. 06/04/08

	 The original proposal was based on Draft 4 and was the last in a series
	 of Manti on the same sections of the LRM, each building on the changes
	 done by the preceding ones.

	 The other Manti entered into Draft 5, but not 2008. As a result, the
	 2008 proposal was rewritten using Draft 5 as a clean base document. A
	 few additional editorial corrections were noticed and entered, but no
	 technical changes from the previous proposal were made.


    John   - likes the proposal. It is similar to the approach used in 
             deferred assertions.
           - isn't aware of the issue with severity 
    Brad   - Stu wants to see an error
    Shalom - The proposal doesn't specify if it is a warning or an error. 
	   - Some committee members preferred a warning, others prefer an error
	   - The proposal was purposely left vague on this point. 
	   - Trying to nail it down precisely could have involved a fair amount
	     of complications. There would be questions about fatal versus 
	     non-fatal error versus warning. Stu wanted a non-fatal error.


              Move: John - approve the proposal for Mantis item 2008
            Second: Shalom
            Passed unanimously

	- duplicate
	- The Editor flagged as a duplicate of 2234
	- SV-EC Approved on May 12 2008, unanimously.

              Move: Shalom - approve the resolution of duplicate for 
			     Mantis item 1742
            Second: Brad
            Passed unanimously
