    Hi Stu,

    The proposal does not suggest that we pair "one" with other net types;
    I wouldn't like that either. I am going to pull the "wone" proposal
    out of the larger donation and send it separately to the group.

    >"wone" has been suggested as a keyword for a wire that is restricted to
    >having a single source. It has not been voted on, even within the data
    >types subcommittee, as far as I know. Personally, I have problems with
    >"wone", which I assume is short "wire one driver". There are several other
    >net net types: tri, wor, trior, wand, triand, tri0, tri1, supply0, supply1,
    >and trireg. What are the contractions for a single driver version of these?
    >Is it "tone", "wone", "toone", "tone0", "tone1", "sone0", "sone1" and
    >"wonereg"? I HOPE NOT! I think there needs to be better way to specify a
