13)  IBIS-AMI Section 6c Tables Update (Table1_3_BIRD_draft_1.pdf)
     - this is on hold until all related items are defined

14) Define relationship between Type and Format (Row 25 in Task List
    Type_Format_Table_BIRD_02.pdf)
    - this is on hold until all related items are defined



Remaining Task List items:
==========================

Row 21: According to the BNF, the Format = Table syntax is invalid.
        - If Format is removed, this s not a problem, but if Format
          is there the problem still exists.  Do we need to fix this?
          - we will address this when talking about Table

Row 22: 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?
        - we will address this when talking about Table

Row 23/24: Fix the two tables to reflect what is in the text
           - Bob started a BIRD draft which will be finalized
             as other BIRDs are completed

Row 25: Define relationship between Type and Format
        - Ambrish started a BIRD draft which will be finalized
          as other BIRDs are completed

Row 35: Clarify questions about impulse response
        - this needs to be discussed

Row 37: Usage Out for reserved (jitter) parameters
        - which function (Init or GetWave) can return these?

Row 46/47: Remove certain parameters and keywords
           - this needs to be discussed

Row 51-61: New issues discovered



Thanks,

Arpad
