Stefen,

I began a project a few weeks ago--which is still a work in progress--to
create a Verilog-2001 information site. The link is
http://www.verilog-2001.com. Woudl it be OK to set up a link to your page,
or would you rather keep all the e-mail discussion history of the task
force less obvious to the world? For the PLI task force, I put an
item-by-item summary of all our discussions on the Verilog-2001 site. But,
I chose to archive the thousands of e-mails that went on behind the scenes
and not put them on-line.

Unfortunately, about the time I finished the preliminary Verilog-2001 site,
Accellera killed the old OVI web page, with its table on all BTF (and ATF)
enhancement requests and errata that make up the Verilog-2001 changes. I
contacted Lynn and Maq, who both approved moving the table to the
Verilog-2001 site, but alas, no trace of the files could be found. If you
have a copy of that table, in any format, I would sure like to add it to
the Verilog-2001 web site!

A project I still plan for the Verilog-2001 web page is to have a place
where anyone can submit errata or enhancement requests for
Verilog-200x. But, I wanted to wait until the actual LRM become available
from the IEEE before adding a place to comment on it.
