Agenda
======

1) Opens
2) Call for any related patent disclosures
3) Review of ARs:


Walter: Divide BIRD 119 into 4 separate BIRDs
        - done (They are now BIRDs 121-124)

Arpad:  Update the Typos BIRD draft 
        - say the Typ is the implicit default for all types
        - Discuss with Walter parameter Default/Value examples
        - done

Arpad:  AR from Open Forum on BIRD 114.2:  Update BIRD 114.1 to
        include statements on escape characters in strings, and
        correct multi-line misinterpretation possibilities
        - pending response from Anders


Any other AR-s?


Old ARs:

Arpad:  Review the documentation (annotation) in the macro libraries.
        - deferred until a demand arises or we have nothing else to do



4)  Discuss Arpad's Typos_Format_Value_Default BIRD draft

4a) What is the ambiguity between Format and Text Strings?  (Row 18)

4b) According to the BNF, the Format = Table syntax is invalid.
    (Row 21 in Task List)
    - If Format is removed, this s not a problem, but if Format is
      there the problem still exists.  Do we need to fix this?

4c) The syntax for a leaf is:
    (Row 22 in Task List)
       <leaf>:   ( <parameter name> whitespace <value list> )
       So in a Table which is written like this:   (-50 -0.1 1e-35),
       -50 is actually a parameter name, i.e. a string, not a value.
    -deprecate Table back to List?

4d) Need rules for Description (Row 27)
    - Bob suggested to make it optional. (Yes)
    - should it be required for Model Specific and optional for
      Reserved parameters?  (No)
    - These are addressed in the Typos BIRD now

5)  Fix the two tables to reflect what is in the text (Rows 23-24)
    - need someone to volunteer to write a BIRD
      - Bob agreed to do this after the Asian Summit

6)  Define relationship between Type and Format (Row 25)
    - discuss Walter's suggestions
    - need someone to volunteer to write a BIRD

7)  What is Row 26 all about?  Is it the same as Row 47?

8)  Is AMI_Init restricted to change first column of impulse_matrix
    only?  (Row 33)
    - this needs to be discussed

9)  Clarify questions about impulse response (Row 35)
    - this needs to be discussed

10) Define/clarify rules about parameter string for DLL (Row 36)
    - this needs to be discussed (Walter says it is in the BNF
      except for Table)

11) Clarify what AMI parameters Usage out are used for (Row 37)
12) Clarify Fangyi's questions on Usage (Row 38)
13) Add: "It is only the leaves of a parameter tree that can have
    Usage defined for them" (Row 39)
    - need page number
    - this is addressed in the Typos BIRD now

14) Need page number for item in Row 40
    - this is addressed in the Typos BIRD now

15) Add version control parameter to .ami file (Row 41)
    - draft done

16) Remove certain parameters and keywords (Rows 46, 47)
    - this needs to be discussed


17) Discuss BIRD 121-124



Thanks,

Arpad
