========================================================================
The team reviewed the final versions of the Touchstone 2.0 base document
and addendum. Radeck suggested that Example 9 in the addendum be edited 
to remove the reference to the Full Matrix type, as the example only 
contains one port.  The restriction on frequency data being ordered from

smallest to largest should be kept.  The team further concluded that any
parser specification should not be a separate document, but be part of
the main document.

The addendum and base document will be combined and distributed for
review.

========================================================================

Team Objectives:
1) complete ICM-IBIS linking BIRD and any associated changes to the 
   ICM specification
2) update the ICM specification, if needed, to clarify the mapping of 
   ICM nodes to S-parameter ports
3) complete a specification for "Touchstone Plus" or similar 
   industry-standard definition for Touchstone-like files, to include 
   complex impedance references, removal of limits on the maximum number
   of ports and per-port impedance references
