Hi,
I talked to Edison regarding the d/D suffix for the double generic type
and he said it went into the Decimal TR by mistake/oversight as a blind
acceptance of Fred's WG14 comment 10904 (the suffix is point 6) without
review. He did say he didn't intend for it to happen after seeing it.
In essence he said we (IBM) screwed up and would want to rectify the issue
by removing the suffix and wants to have this as a defect report. So I
would like to keep my comments in the TS part 2 regarding removing the d/D
suffix.
