Preliminary Agenda for MSC meeting on 9 October 2006



MSC:

 

The next meeting of the MSC will be 9 October 2006 and will be held at Intel Corp in Santa Clara with Dave James as our host.  This will be an evening meeting starting at 6PM as currently planned.

 

We have a lot of year end cleanup to accomplish along with moving the P754 Floating Point Arithmetic to Sponsor Ballot.  The current ballot pool is at 40.  If any wish to join – I sent out the instruction a while ago.

 

For the year end clean-up we have a lot of PARs that will expire at the December Standards Board meeting if nothing is done.  We should plan on requesting extensions on those in ballot and look at the other that are in need of help!

 

I have listed some of the obvious ones in the agenda.  Please bring other to my attention.

 

For those that are pdf handicapped, here is the less well formatted text version of the preliminary agenda:
