P1788

On 29th November I sent, to the P1788 officers, a first draft of text of the standard, roughly as far as our motions have taken it. I asked for their comments. These were not too unfavourable, so I think it is worth circulating the same version to the whole P1788 group, which I do hereby.

Your comments please on any aspect of the text that you feel relevant:
- Content, and agreement (or not) with substance of motions that have passed.
- Style and presentation.
- Order of material, and its numbering into clauses (a clause is a LaTeX \section, as I have done it).

There are several empty clauses, to be written in due course. Please suggest others that are obviously needed (an example is reverse-mode elementary functions as in Vienna proposal), and where you think they should go.

A few hours after I sent this draft to the officers, I was burgled and my laptop stolen, and I have no recent backup so must recreate the source text from the PDF. This will take me a couple of weeks -- one reason for not updating the draft before sending it to the whole group.

I wish everyone a happy Christmas.
