Forth standards meeting at EuroForth 2005
On 2005-10-20 and 2005-10-21 there will be a Forth standards meeting,
right before EuroForth 2005
<http://personales.unican.es/ceballof/ef05/>. Some of the topics that
we might discuss are:
Proposals for standardisation
Which proposals that have had a CfV should be accepted into the
standard, which ones should be delayed, and which ones should be
rejected (if any)?
About which other topics should there be proposals, and who is going
to write them?
Should new words be put into the established wordsets, or into new
ones? How are the extension-query names reflected in the standard (if
at all)?
Meta stuff
How well is the RfD/CfV process working at generating high-quality
proposals for standardisation and getting information about their
popularity?
What could be improved? Or should we do something completely
different?
Should we run the standard through a standards body like ANSI, ISO,
IEEE, etc.? If so, which one?
Who is going to be the chaiman of the standards committee? Who is
going to be the editor of the standards document?
Please submut additional topics
If you have any other issues that you want to discuss, please mail me
about them.
