Rajan: Proposal 1: Update the spreadsheet of part 1 features based on 
Marius' note and send it out to the group for final review.



Rajan: Proposal 1: Change the prior art text that has "ex." to "Example:" 
since Ex. could mean excluding.

Prior art: A number of features from this TS have been implemented in some 
form already as listed below:

GCC, IBM: _Bool conversions for sNaNs with “invalid”, canonical arguments 
for fprintf family of functions, no exceptions for fabs

Intel: Exact results for existing functions (examples include ceil, 
floor), minimum/maximum magnitude functions, total order functions, 
floating point environment set/test functions, control modes, rounding to 
narrower type functions

Intel, IBM: New rounding functions (examples include roundeven*), next 
functions (examples include nextup, nextdown)

Rajan: Proposal 2: Add in prior art based off the spreadsheet of features.

Prior art: A number of features from this TS have been implemented in some 
form already as listed below:

GCC, IBM, Intel: DFP types, preferred quantum exponents, conversions, 
constants, (all to the extent of TR 24732:2009)

GCC, IBM: New macros,  (all to the extent of TR 24732:2009)

Intel, IBM: Decimal operation binding (examples include quantized*, 
convertFormat, samequantumd*) and other functions corresponding to 
standard functions (examples include fma, sqrt, fabs, acosd*, frexpd*) 
(all to the extent of TR 24732:2009)

IBM: Rounding functions (different names), format specifiers, type generic 
macros for decimal functions

Intel: Evaluation format types, encoding/decoding functions (all to the 
extent of TR 24732:2009)
