Jim, fellow pilots:

1)

Do we need the left hand bit operands in jim-p1?,
they look odd, E.G.:

--J6
     function "-"(L: std_ulogic; R: unsigned) return unsigned;

Isn't this getting carried away?

avec <= '1' - unsigned'("01110"); -- why?

2)

Also, often integers are used for indexes to arrays. So,

Do we want to consider adding:

function "+"(L:integer ; R: std_ulogic) return integer;
function "+"(L:natural ; R: std_ulogic) return natural;
function "-"(L:integer ; R: std_ulogic) return integer;
function "-"(L:natural ; R: std_ulogic) return natural;

3)

We should push ahead with a vote on some proposals within
Pilot. I think dave_p1, jim_p1 are far enough along now,
if we have a plus vote I would like to add them to the
proposed package.

David, are some of the proposals seconded already? Perhaps
we should add the seconder name to the proposal sheet.

Thanks, Rob
