* General news

A reminder that we have agreed there will be no Monday meetings for a while.
Please note that the 1st August call is setup to use a different webex bridge
as Andrew is out on vacation.

The html version of the standard was released and some feedback has been received.
A number of updates to the formatting and html generator have been made to address the issues raised,
and the online publication has been refreshed each time (a date stamp is present on the start page).

Andrew has contacted Tom to discuss the IEEE/ISO PSDO process prior to us
respondong to the ISO/IEC ballot comments from the ISO editors.
Andrew will circulate a draft response to those comments to the core team.

Bug 1628: Add -o (reopen stdin) option to xargs(1)  Accepted as Marked
https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1628

All page and line numbers in the following are from Issue 8.
After applying bug 1801, change:
    [-P maxprocs] [-s size] [utility [argument...]]

in the SYNOPSIS to:
    [-o|-P maxprocs] [-s size] [utility [argument...]]
After P3601, L123219, add:
    -o

	Reopen standard input in the child process from /dev/tty
	before starting utility. This allows utility to run with
	user interaction.

After P3602, L123261 (INPUT FILES), add a new paragraph:
    If the -o option is specified, the file /dev/tty is also used
    as the standard input for utility.
After P3604, L123357 (EXAMPLES), add a new item to the list of examples:

    5.
	If the following command is run in an interactive shell,
	xargs invokes an interactive editor on each of the header
	files in the file hierarchy rooted in the current working
	directory:

        find . -name \*.h -print0 | xargs -0or -- "$EDITOR"
