[vhdl-200x] RE: [Accellera:vhdl] Re: [Fwd: 1076-2008 - Approval Notification]

Duth,

As Jim mentioned, we need to complete the production editing process with
IEEE before the final published document is available from them. I'm afraid
I don't know what their work queue is like right now, so I am unable to
estimate how long it will take. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that.

Re D4.3a: That was the final version balloted and approved. I'm not sure
what limitations IEEE wants on distribution of the draft. I would hope we
can put it on the Accellera document repository for Accellera VHDL-TC
members to access, since they contributed to development of the draft.
However, we don't have a precedent for doing that. I'll check with the IEEE
and let you know.

Cheers,

PA
