---+++ Administrative issues

<b>Approval of minutes</b><br />Minutes of the 2016-08-10 meeting were approved after the extension taht the WG decided not to update the P&Ps. Alain moved, seconded by Joachim.

<b>Review of IEEE patent policy</b><br />Review of patent policy was skipped because all participantsin the telephone conference were regulars.

<b>Handling of copyrighed material</b><br />Ernst received a Copyright Permission Letter from Cadence and Eastman Kodak. Synopsys is working on it. There was no reaction from Accellera. Status of TDM and VMO packages with regard to P1076.1 is open.
---+++ Project discussion

<b>TDM and VMO packages</b><br />Different versions of the Table Driven Modelling (TDM) package are available. They use either VHDL 2008 features or constrained arrays. Both approaches have pros and cons. The final package based on VHDL 2008 shall be made available as open source. The status of the Vector Matrix package can be found in the  [[%ATTACHURL%/mtg_slides160907.pdf][meeting slides]].

<b>Q'LTF and Q'ZTF<br /></b>Alternate forms of Q'LTF would require to make the type COMPLEX available. Ernst will check whether this can be done in an easy way. Otherwise, the LRM revision will not address this issue.

<b>Q'SLEW<br /></b>At a discontinuity of a quantity Q, it must be assured that Q'SLEW is continuous. The declaration of the attribute has to be updated in a sophisticated way.<b><br /></b>

<b>LCSs</b><br />The status of the LCSs is summarized in the [[%ATTACHURL%/mtg_slides160907.pdf][meeting slides]]. LCS 201x-20 (Working with Quantities at an ASP) was approved.
