RE: Released version

Hi Shabtay,
    You are probably right that it is not actually released until the
Accellera board says so - so I did think twice before putting it up on the
web site. The version for the board - if they approve it, will become the
release so it is ready for that eventuality. I also though hard about the
wording in the document. It is the SCE-MI 2.0 release of a draft
specification, so I believe that both are right. I think it would have been
wrong to call it a draft release, as this is the final release of 2.0 which
is a draft standard. In 1.1.0 we had referred to the document as a reference
manual which I also think was wrong.

Given that every page says 'draft specification' I do not see how there
could be much confusion. If you feel better we could change the front page
to say Draft Specification Release, but it would not be right to call it a
Draft Release.

Brian,

Looking at the version you just posted on the web, I have noted that you
have take the word "candidate" out from the front page and footers. 

Also, the footer of each page states "SCE-MI 2.0 draft specification -
release" but the front page states only SCE-MI "Version 2.0 Release"

My questions:

Isn't SCE-MI 2.0 draft specification still a release "candidate" until
approved by the other Accellera chairs?

Shouldn't the font page say also "Version 2.0 Draft release
(candidate)"?

We only agreed to release SCE-MI 2.0 as a draft.

Thanks,

Shabtay
