[Cfp-interest] WG14 meeting summary regarding the floating point DR's and C2X proposals

[Rajan Bhakta]

Hello,

In the ISO/SC22/WG14 meeting this week, we went over the floating point 
DR's that are already open, the new Draft DR's we proposed, as well as the 
two proposals for new inclusions into C2x (TS 18661 parts 1 and 2).
Here are the results of the meeting:

Floating Point Draft DR's:
    DDR1: DR500 (C11)
    DDR2: DR501 (C11)
    DDR3: DR5 (CFP)
    DDR4: DR6 (CFP)
    DDR5: DR7 (CFP)
    DDR6: DR8 (CFP)
    DDR7: DR9 (CFP)
    DDR8: DR10 (CFP)
    DDR9: DR11 (CFP)
  Legend:
    DDR = Draft DR (from paper N2077, which we submitted to WG14).
    C11 = Defect report against C11. A new defect report was opened with 
the given number. Ex. DR500 = New defect report against C11 numbered 500.
    CFP = Defect report against TS 18661 (all parts). A new defect report 
was opened with the given number. Ex. DR6 = New defect report against TS 
18661 numbered 6.

Floating point defect review:
      DR1: Move to review.
      DR2: Move to review.
      DR3: Move to review.
      DR4: Move to review.
      DR5: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
      DR6: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
      DR7: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
      DR8: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
      DR9: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
      DR10: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
      DR11: New. Take Suggested TC as Proposed TC.
  Legend: TC = Technical Corrigendum

C2X proposals:
  C2x proposal — TS 18661-1 [N 2078 
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2078.pdf]
    Adding to SD3 with a note that the committee clearly expects this to 
go into C2X.

  C2x proposal — TS 18661-2 [N 2079 
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2079.pdf]
    Adding to SD3 with a note that the committee clearly expects this to 
go into C2X.

For the proposals, the committee was strongly in favor of putting both 
parts 1 and 2 into C2X.
For the DR's, only DR501 had issues and is still being discussed in the 
WG14 email reflector. The other defects seem to be good with regards to 
our proposed fixes.
