Hi Vassilios

I too am confused. As Stu points out, and as is noted in the minutes, the
vote was for the creation of four sub-committees underneath the Verilog++
or the HDL+ committee which I understood you to be the chair and I, the
co-chair.

Now you are saying that four committees have been formed and Verilog++
disbanded? That has lots of implications even over and above the ones that
Stu correctly mentions.
