---++ Agenda:
   * Review VHDL-2008-MP remaining list items
   * Review VHDL-2008-FT remaining list items
   * See these items in the <a target="_top" href="Vhdl2019CollectedRequirements">collected requirements list</a>

---++ Review of VHDL-2008-FT
   * FT15 - Slicing of multidimensional arrays and arrays of arrays - Ryan to write proposal
   * FT17 - Interfaces - have work in progress
   * FT27 - architecture optional? - 
      * Jerry: Adds short cut where one is not really needed.
      * Recommend Reject
   * FT32 - pathname issue rollup 
      * All except referencing unelaborated design unit is documented in section 8.7
      * Was referencing an unelaborated design unit is done is VHPI (see ! in documentation).
      * Recommend: Mark Closed
   * Move VHPI issues up to separate list as sometime they need to be handled

---++ Review of VHDL-2008-MP
   * MP1 - Bidirectional Connections (Jumper - static, Switch - dynamic, Resistor) 
      * Static
      * Dynamic requires a special simulation model 
         * Connecting to other languages may benefit from this?
      * Does VHDL-AMS have something like this? Is it a solved problem? Talk to Ernst.
   * MP E1 - Allow ";" to terminate as well as separate interface lists 
      * Ryan to write proposal.
   * MP2 - Regularized and minimized bracketing (end) 
      * Should "end if", require the if? Likewise for record, protected, process, case, and generate.
      * Consistency with entity, architecture, package, procedure, function
      * Accept if someone champions it and writes proposal
---++ Outreach / Recruitment
   * Post to comp.lang.vhdl and linked in groups?
---++ Review and Approve Meeting Minutes:
   * Motion: Ryan 2nd: Cliff
