Open issues:
010219.1 -- Duplicate Dwarf elimination
010222.1 -- Multisection location and range lists
There have been numerous proposals on this second topic,
and we have discussed this issue at every meeting for
the past several months. I believe that it is past time to
either approve or reject changes on this topic, without
further resubmissions and revisions.
Late proposals:
We have received a number of proposals for changes to the Dwarf 2
specification, in particular to improve support for Ada. To repeat my
comments from the agenda for January 9, 2001:
"In September, we established a time frame for finalizing the Dwarf
standard. Although we did not establish a firm deadline for
submission of proposals, we did establish a target date of
Jan 1, 2001, for 'All issues resolved and proposals considered'."
At the January 9 meeting, we extended the schedule to complete consideration
of a very few issues which were in process at that time.
How do we wish to address this latest set of proposed revisions?
(Note that no comment is made about the merits of any of these proposals,
the topic is how to proceed toward completion of the Dwarf 2 standard.)
