+ SV-AC 1549  

  In his post to the SV-BC reflector

  http://www.eda.org/sv-bc/hm/5050.html

  Brad asked that this committee review SV-AC 1549.
  
+ Issue Review

 Process:
 Identify subset of issues to focus committee effort
 Assign owners for the issues
 Owners bring issues to vote when draft of proposal complete
 Rebuttal to issues should come in the form of specific changes to
proposal

 Guidelines for issues:
 - Group would prefer not to address issues that complicate merging of
the 
   LRMs or require edits to both specs.  Group would prefer to address
more
   isolated errata until next PAR is set.
 - Try to clarify intent of some issues even if no formal resolution.
This
   would be useful for keeping implementations consistent.
 - Major Severity will be used to identify issues that if not addressed
will
   lead to visibly different implementations.
 - Group will use severity to quantify impact of change.
   Issues will be addressed in order of severity.
 - Priority will indicate issue's development progress.  Increase in
priority
   indicates increased progress to proposal and vote.  'Immediate'
priority
   indicates issue is ready for a vote.
 - Individuals will indicate ownership of resolution by adding
themselves
   to the 'assigned to' field.  Karen will help anyone who cannot update
an 
   issue.
 - Individual members can increase the severity of an issue but the
group 
   must agree to decrease severity.
 - Status Filed: Assigned, Resolved & Closed are key states.
