[sv-bc] RE: [sv-ac] Opinion on merging of P1364 and P1800

Hi, Faisal,
 
Thanks for your question.
 
Some members of the standards community believe that the industry will
be better off if we, as a standards body, spend our time merging the
LRMs into a single document.  Fewer issues occurring because of
references to behavior in two places, simplicity in finding a particular
behavior defined, etc.  There are members of our community who believe
that our time is better spent addressing issues in the current LRMs.
The P1800 is working to ensure that all of the issues on both sides of
the discussion are raised and considered before making a decision.
 
Karen

	Hi, all, 

	In the P1800 meeting last week, the Working Group asked for each
of the SV-* committees to provide an opinion on whether or not to merge
the P1364 and the P1800 LRMs into one LRM.  They are interested in your
opinions on:

	1)  How much time will it take us to merge the relevant parts of
the LRM 
	2)  When you recommend merging the LRM (now, toward the end of
the current 2 year revision cycle, next LRM, never)... 
	3)  Any other questions or comments that the committees
recommend the study group consider in their decision to develop the next
PAR.

	Committee chairs, I would appreciate it if you would develop a
response reflective of your committee's opinion and forward it to me
after your next committee meeting, preferably no later than the 15th of
February.

	Thank you, 

	Karen Pieper
