All,
1) The unit of UI are unitless. 1==bit_time, .5==bit_time/2, .
2) Four Gaussian, mean and sigma are both either Type Float (second)
or Type UI depending if Type is set to Float or UI respectively (see
answer to 1). We are allowing multiple Type fields for Table, but not for
Gaussian, DjRj or Dual-Dirac.
3) I do not understand the question, please clarify by an example
other than Description.

Subject: [ibis-macro] Questions from the Editorial Group
Hello everyone,
A few questions were raised in the Editorial Task Group
for I would like to get answers for from our experts.
1) What units are assumed for UI? Seconds? Picoseconds?
Percent? Other? We are assuming no suffixes are allowed.
2) For Gaussian and similar types, are we assuming "mean"
and "sigma" are floats?
3) Do the rules under "Type" apply to all of the fields
in an IBIS-AMI .ami file? In other words, do arguments
other than "Type" need to follow the same rules as their
corresponding type?
For example, is the argument to Description a string?
If so, does the argument follow the same rules as the
formal type "string"?
We only defined the rules for the *Types* string, Boolean,
Integer, etc., but other AMI file contents are apparently
of these types without being Type arguments.
Answers and comments are encouraged to help the Editorial
Group in finalizing the v5.1 specification.
Thanks,
Arpad
