Re: [vhdl-200x] VHDL Meeting: January 10 at 8 am Pacific

Hi Jim,

luckily your meeting minutes haven't arrived yet so maybe I have a chnace to put
in one more point I forgot at todays telco.

Could you also put "Native language support for IP encryption (P1735?)" on the
list? Encryption has been addressed with the most recent VHDL spec but I would
like to make sure that VHDL is in sync with what P1735 ae doing.

I already find this a very useful feature for giving customers try-before-buy
solutions. At least Aldec provide a perl script for encrypting and the
compiler/simulator can read the encrypted files. However, I think this is
currently restricted to a synplicity 'industry standard' encryption which might be
a bit behind or different to what the P1735 are doing. I would see this firstly as
a point for review and action only required if necessary.
