    I am going to keep pestering until these issues are settled.

    1. P1364-2005 needs a new introduction. Look at the one in 1364-2001,
    and what appears in the p1800 draft.

    The IEEE Standards Style Manual says,

    "An introduction shall be supplied by the working group, giving the
    history of the standard, a description of its purpose, and, if the standard
    is a revision, an explanation of the principal changes from the previous
    edition."

    2. It also needs a new participants list. Again, see 1364-2001 and p1800
    draft. The style manual says,
    "At a minimum, a roster of the officers and members of the working group
    that developed the document shall be provided by the working group.
    Individuals or entities that also contributed to the preparation of the
    document may be included in addition to the working group list."

    (Stu, the ballot group list should say "entity members" instead of just
    "members".)

    3. Clause numbering. It appears 1364 has to add a Normative References
    clause as Clause 2. This moves the others by one, including the PLI 1.0
    sections referenced in 1364-2001.

    If we want to try to maintain the 2001 numbering as much as possible,
    I have two suggestions:

    a. move Clause 11 (Disabling of tasks and named blocks) into Clause 10
    (Tasks and functions).

    b. move Clause 5 (Scheduling semantics) to before Clause 12 (Hierarchies).

    Doing these two together would change the numbers of only clauses 2-4, 5,
    and 11. 2-4 would become 3-5, 5 would become 11, and 11 would be part of 10.

    Shalom
