SV-BC F2F • Charter • To address issues exposed in SystemVerilog 3.0 standard through implementation • Cannot re-define SystemVerilog 3.0. SystemVerilog 3.0 is an Accellera Approved Standard • The goal is to make sure we have: • Clear syntax. • Clear semantics. • Limited modification based on implementation. www.accellera.org
SV-BC F2F • On the extreme case: • If there is something which will truly disable the language or its usage, this should be considered carefully • Allow appropriate discussion and debate with the different experts and language architects • Other SV committees are basing their efforts on existing SystemVerilog 3.0: • We cannot remove or add things unless they are based on clear implementation issues www.accellera.org
SV-BC F2F • Processes • Proper time is allocated for each topic, to permit enough constructive discussion • Once time is up, we will follow the voting process after a discussion of each of the issues • Voting rights: • Everyone can express his/her opinion • Those who attended 3 of the last 4 meetings can vote • Minutes will be summarized and publicized by Johny & Karen • “Proposed” Email voting process is summarized in the next foil www.accellera.org
