B19: Signed Arithmetic Proposal

Tom's preliminary proposal (sent by e-mail) was accepted as is.

Action Item: Tom will now start work on an official proposal to
specifically change and add sections to the IEEE Verilog LRM

B23: Constant Functions

We would like Karen's input on this subject before approval within the BTF

Constant functions: The BTF recommends the inclusion of constant functions
to the Verilog language.

Issue: BNF needs to be updated
Issue: cross-module references.

B03: File I/O

Mac will contact Stu Sutherland on %t issues related to file I/O

B26: Indexing memory elements

Action Item: Cliff to write up the example discussed on the phone to comply
with proposed enhancements B01 and B26.
Kurt and Mac believe B01 implies the need for B26.
Action Item: Anders to re-send B26
Need to re-look at B02 to make sure that B26 covers bit-select and
part-select of multidimensional arrays.

We would like Karen's input on this subject before approval within the BTF

B01: Generate

Action Item: Kurt will provide more generate examples (such as a booth
decoder).
