Re: Do I have a second? (Motion to not support mid-rad

I second.

Nate Hayes
P.S. I agree with Baker the motion is a bit ambiguous and needs some clarification during the discussion phase. I also believe if this motion passes that the title of this working group needs to change.

Subject: Do I have a second? (Motion to not support mid-rad



P-1788:

Arnold Neumaier and Dan Zuras have jointly put forward the
following motion:

The standard shall not support a midrad interval format or
>     nonstandard intervals, beyond providing conversion support,
>     approximately to the extent specified in the Vienna Proposal.

Do I have a second?

Baker

P.S. I'm wondering precisely what "support" means here.  Perhaps,
     if the motion is seconded, that could be clarified during the
     discussion.  (I'm assuming it means explicitly specifying the
     behavior of mid/rad operations.)

P.P.S. The voting period for Motion 19 is continuing.
