[Amended minutes of 31003 meeting posted to boyd.com/1364/minutes] Announcement: PAR approved by IEEE, available at Steve Sharp elected Chair of BTF Question of whether Accellera will donate anything to IEEE was raised. Thoughts of the commitee are that we may need to ask; or solicit alternative (equivalent) donations, or what. How about Verilog-AMS? Kurt - I'd like there to be a single superset language that accepts all subsets (Verilog-AMS, 1364, et cetera). Math should be the same; and syntax accepted. Nedd to unify Verilog-AMS and 2001's methods for access to bits of hierarchial references. Steve & Gordan & Shalom will try to find a AMS person to join BTF.
