RE: [vhdl-200x] Call for Vote: VHDL + VHPI (P1076c) - 060908

Jim and Alex,
 
I believe the process in the past has been to accept "informative" votes
from people who haven't maintained their voting status. Those votes aren't
count toward the outcome of the question, but count towards the person's
voting status.
 
Also, I think it should be 2 out of the last 3, not all of the last 3. Do I
recall correctly?
 
Cheers,
 
PA

Jim:

How can a working group member become a voting member if the requirement 
to be a voting member is to vote, and you do not let them vote? Please
clarify this 
for me!
I would let all who wanted to vote, vote, and count more and more 
of the votes each time. I know,... then if they are too many, you have a
problem 
with the chorum at the face meetings, but I do not think you stop some from 
voting this time to keep your group voting member number low. 
If not that, then what's the reason for such ..."membership mutilation
attempt"?

This was a good occasion to get people in (as voting members), and wanting 
to keep their voting status. Is there anything you can do to reverse the
situation
and work in that direction?

Kind regards,

Alex Z

Subject: [vhdl-200x] Call for Vote: VHDL + VHPI (P1076c) - 060908

Dear colleagues,
This is a call for vote from IEEE P1076 WG members on the
Accellera approved revision of VHDL that includes VHPI plus
some ISAC revisions. The purpose of this revision is to make
VHPI available as a standard. As such, it does not have
the additional revisions that were just completed by the
Accellera VHDL TC. Those revisions will be put forth later
(Q1 2007?). This gives industry some time to tune up the
revisions if necessary before they become an IEEE standard.

This revision has been reviewed and approved b y both the
Accellera VHDL TC and the Accellera board. It has also been
updated slightly. We have a separate PAR for this work (P1076c).

The updated VHDL-VHPI draft for the P1076C can be found at:

http://www.eda-stds.org/vasg/P1076-2006/P1076c-2006-D3.1.zip

This copy of the draft is provide for members of the
working group to evaluate the draft for its suitability
for balloting. It is password protected. In a previous
email I sent the password to all who have voted in the
last 3 votes.

Please forward votes to me by email (eg, by replying to
this message) by 5pm US-PDT, Friday September 8, 2006.

Approval in this case shall mean that we accept this revision
to be the revision to send to IEEE for balloting.

Potential votes: Approve, Negative with comment, Negative with no comment,
Abstain

Vote:

Best Regards,
Jim Lewis

P.S.
The ballot group formation will close to! day at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
