OPEN ACTION AI-2006-09-02: Ulrich and Nick to develop a draft PAR and criteria for C++ POSIX binding for discussion, and to produce the Study Group final report by March 31. Still on track to submit a report, its expected the report will request an extension and that a face to face meeting occur in the next few months to either develop an agreed PAR or pronounce the idea as not workable. (update as of March 23 -- the report has now been submitted to the PASC SEC) CLOSED ACTION 2007-02-01: Andrew Josey to make a pass through current closed aardvarks against approved std, to move items to SD-5 or interpretations when ready. Closing: Andrew has prepared updates for SD5, and also the list of interpretations and circulated those to the reflector. Action: Andrew to prepare a document in the document register that has the latest lists. This will be Austin/357 ACTION 2007-02-02: Andrew Josey to talk to IEEE and ITTF about the name to use in the text: is POSIX.1:200x satisfactory to all? CLOSED Andrew has raised the issue as part of the ISO project editor report, and also with individual mails to the IEEE Staff Editor, and also to Sally Seitz at ANSI (so we can raise it with the ISO editors). ACTION 2007-02-06: Ulrich to research issue 15 and propose text for XSH intro to explain directory searching, with special respect to the *at() functions. OPEN (Geoff has posted some mail on this, come back to this when Ulrich has the cycles) ACTION 2007-02-08: Mark Brown to produce sample pages with various ways of presenting c99 information, including synopsis changes, Geoff Clare's proposal, and no change, and to circulate these pages.

OPEN (dependent on previous action) New Business ------------- We spent most of the meeting discussing the next steps for the C++ study group related to action AI 2006-09-02. It was agreed as above that the best course of action is to request an extension and during that period hold a face to face meeting. Regarding the merger of the document to a single file Andrew reported that ISO is balloting the matter. Aardvark Bug Reports -------------------- None were discussed. We expect to discuss the finegrain aardvark reports next week http://www.opengroup.org/austin/aardvark/finegrain/ Next Steps ----------- Andrew will update the aardvark reports with the latest inbound defect reports.
