Dear colleagues, This is a call for vote from IEEE P1076 WG members on the next group of ISAC issues listed below. This is the last round of issues to be included in the Accellera draft before hand-over to IEEE for standardization. IR2099, warrants particular attention, as it addresses a thorny technical issue that occupied ISAC for quite some time. It is closely related to changes introduced in the Accellera draft. The relevant issues are identified in the IR, and the corresponding LRM changes are implemented in the current Accellera draft, D3.8. If you have not yet participated in the Accellera process and would like to join to review D3.8 and subsequent drafts, please contact me. I'll be pleased to help you get set up. The ISAC has analyzed the issues listed below and made recommendations for interpretation of the IEEE 1076-2002 standard and for future revisions of the standard. This vote is for approval of the ISAC recommendations. Please note that, in some cases, a recommendation may be to reject a request. In that case, a vote to approve the recommendation means rejecting the request, whereas a negative vote means reconsidering the request. Please take care with the logical sense of your vote in such cases. Also note that some of the issues do not specify detailed LRM edits to implement a change. The intention is that the detailed changes be specified in a Language Change Specification (LCS) document that will be voted on separately. The intent of this vote is to determine whether such an LCS is required. Only votes of eligible voters will be counted. Votes from ineligible voters will be recorded for information and for adding to your "last 2 of 3" participation count. I will acknowledge each vote received and indicate whether it was counted or not. Please consider forwarding a vote, even an abstain vote if you do not have time to review the issues in detail, so that your 2-of-3 participation is maintained. Please forward votes to me by email (eg, by replying to this message) by 5pm US-PDT, Wednesday October 31, 2007. For each issue, would you please vote one of: approve, negative with comments, negative with no comments, or abstain. You may also provide informative comments with a vote to approve a recommendation. Please use the form below. Thank you.
