Leave it open until we get a more complete suggestion for the Desired Action. * Current Business Bug 1560: clarify wording of command substitution OPEN https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1560 Leave this and related bugs 1561, and 1564 open pending reviews/discussions. Bug 1583: tidy up definition of the term "Special Built-In" Accepted https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1583 This item is tagged for TC3-2008 Bug 1584: strfmon_l should be conditional on [CX] Withdrawn https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1584 This item has been withdrawn. (Status change before this meeting started.) We started to review the outstanding issues list, see the etherpad for details. This led to responses to the following bugs: Bug 906: Ambiguity of abort() behavior racing with sigaction OPEN https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=906 Action on Nick to raise this issue with the C committee. Does threads.h and Section 5 address it in C11/17/2x somehow? Bug 1077: Recommend support for wide-character regcomp and regexec and/or specify multi-byte behavior Rejected https://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1077 This issue failed to get a sponsor, and is therefore rejected. If complete wording can be specified and forwarded to a sponsor (IEEE, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22, or The Open Group), it can be reconsidered in the future. Bug 887: printf and other functions appear many times in search results OPEN https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=887 Let open as follows: The index is controlled by a master file with patterns of the form word.idx:@f /functions/vswprintf.html word.idx:@t vswprintf - wide-character formatted output of a stdarg argument list word.idx:=vswprintf - wide-character formatted output of a stdarg argument list We could remove the duplicates from the file, although whether this is a big enough issue to warrant a change right now is debateable. We will review this for a future generation of the html or maintenance work when time permits. Bug 901: reserve _POSIX* shell option namespace for future use Rejected https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=901 It was agreed to reject this item. See the bugnotes for more information.
