A new entry from Bob Ross has been added to
http://ibis.org/ver7.0_wip/ver7.0_editorial_notes.docx ;
The full contents are now:
1. (from Randy Wolff, Micron Technology)
Just noticed a minor editorial fix for BIRD189.6. On page 28, the
sentence "Each IBIS-ISS terminal shall have terminal line entry." needs to
say "have a terminal".
2. (from Radek Biernacki, Keysight Technologies)
Sorry for a last minute comment, but doing a final review I think we have
another editorial issue (not just one but all similar).
They are all related to some statements referring to "Touchstone". For
example, statements like "connections to IBIS-ISS subcircuits or
Touchstone files" are not up to the high professional standard of the IBIS
specification language. Touchstone files are not electrical components and
the connections are made to the n-port components for which data is
provided in Touchstone files.
I am sending this to the Interconnect list instead of ibis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
to avoid the last minute controversy. Yet, we need to mention that some
cleanup, including improving consistency should be done by the editorial
task group.
3. (from Justin Butterfield, Micron Technology)
On page 41 of BIRD189.7, the beginning bracket of [Interconnect Model Set]
is missing from the comments. Suggested fix in red:
| As an alternative formulation, the [Interconnect Model]s in two
| [Interconnect Model Set]s could be combined into one [Interconnect Model
| Set] describing the full connection of A1 from buffer to pin
