Would each member please confirm <cmingins@fcit.monash.edu.au> that I have the details correct. Christine Mingins educational delegate (Chair) <cmingins@fcit.monash.edu.au> Steve Fisher personal delegate <S.M.Fisher@letterbox.rl.ac.uk> Per Grape corporate delegate <pegr@enea.se> Fred Hart corporate delegate <fhart@atlanta.twr.com> Paul Johnson personal delegate <paj@gec-mrc.co.uk> Bertrand Meyer charter delegate <bertrand@eiffel.com> Greg Moberg personal delegate <gmoberg@xyplex.com> Jean-Marc Nerson corporate delegate <Jean-Marc.Nerson@eiffel.fr> Frieder Monninger <fm@fm.rhein-main.de> Jason Schroeder corporate delegate <shrode@wsc.com> Dino Valente corporate delegate <dinov@eiffel.com> Welcome to the new members! You might like to publish a short bio to introduce yourselves to the committee. Status of Committee discussions ------------------------------- We had been working through PELKS (7), voting on amendment montions So far we have covered GENERAL, PLATFORM, ANY PART_COMPARABLE, COMPARABLE, HASHABLE CHARACTER, BIT_N, BOOLEAN (no proposals received) the following groups have not yet been presented for discussion: NUMERIC, INTEGER, REAL, DOUBLE STRING ARRAY At the same time, Bertrand has proposed to the NICE Board that PELKS 7 be adopted as vintage '95. Also, there is the possibility that the three compiler vendors may come to an agreement on a kernel subset, based on PELKS 7. This would provide a much more harmonious base upon which Library discussions could proceed. There is a need for these discussions to be wrapped up quickly, and I'll keep the committee informed of progress. Committee Business ------------------ Proceed with discussion of next group of classes. I suggest we open up the group of classes NUMERIC, INTEGER, REAL, DOUBLE for general discussion. Best Regards, Christine
