Motion P1788/M003.01_Set_of_reals YES, but see note



Yes

Note:

I do not have a strong opinion either way on this issue.
Originally, I saw aesthetic reasons for including infinity,
and it seemed consistent with the 754-2008 statement that
"the underlying model is the extended reals."  However, others
have put up a strong argument for the underlying model to be
the finite reals.  Also, I feel it more important that this
particular issue be resolved soon than what the actual decision
is.
