RE: [Stds-754] P754R Sponsor Ballot Invitation



Bob could you provide better instructions on how to add IEEE SA to an existing membership.
I've gone around and around, and keep getting an "online service not available" message.
Taking me back to where i started.
This happens at home and at work so in don't think it is Intel's Firewall.

***** IEEE STANDARD DOCUMENT INFORMATION ***** The IEEE Computer

Society Society/IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic invites you to participate in the Revision Sponsor Ballot for:

P754

Title: Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic

Scope: This standard specifies formats and methods for floating-point arithmetic in computer systems: standard and extended functions with single, double, extended, and extendable precision, and recommends formats for data interchange. Exception conditions are defined and standard handling of these conditions is specified.

Purpose: This standard provides a method for computation with floating-point numbers that will yield the same result whether the processing is done in hardware, software or a combination of the two. The results of the computation will be identical, independent of implementation, given the same input data. Errors, and error conditions, in the mathematical processing will be reported in a consistent manner regardless of implementation.
