Peter:

I vote to accept all except CP-003. I find this proposal
non-intuitive. The more common interpretation is to treat '1' as
"000...001", rather than "111....111". For example, "A and '1'"
would mean "A and "000001"" which is same as "A + '1'" which means
"A + "000001"". I therefore reject this proposal.

Subject: Call for vote on P1164 change proposals

Dear colleagues,

I'd like to call for a vote on several of the change proposals for
P1164, the VHDL standard logic package. The summary and detailed change
proposals are on the web server at www.eda.org/vhdl-std-logic.

At this stage, I would ask you to vote on each of the following
proposals:

CP-001 Uncomment xnor operators

CP-002 Add shift operators for vector types

CP-003 Add array/scalar logical operators

CP-004 Add capacitive drive strength

CP-005 Make vector result subtypes same as 1076 operators

CP-006 Add logical reduction operations/operators

CP-009 Provide 'image attribute

CP-010 Add match functions like numeric_std.std_match

For each proposal, you can
(1) vote to accept the analysis and any changes it proposes, or
(2) vote to reject the analysis, citing reasons and revisions to make
     the analysis acceptable
(3) abstain

If you change your mind during the vote period, I will count the last
vote received from you. I will acknowledge votes by reply email.

For a vote to pass, it will require a return of 75% of voting members,
less than 30% abstentions, and 75% those votes that accept or reject to
be accept votes. (These rules mirror the rules for sponsor ballot.)

Please note that only current DASC members are eligible to have their
vote recognized. For this ballot, I will also collect votes from
non-DASC-members and tally them separately for information.

Please forward your vote to me at peter@ashenden.com.au by 5:00pm US-PST
Friday 14 February 2003. Please also indicate whether you are a DASC
member. (If you want to join up, see www.dasc.org for details.)

Thanks for your participation!

Cheers,

Peter Ashenden
P1164 Chair
