Merge with 1364

In thinking about the merge with 1364-200?, I've been
wondering about the intended format of the Verilog-AMS LRM.

In the current (2.2) LRM, we have essentially copied the
relevant sections from 1364-1995.  However, this might not
be possible or desirable for LRM 2.3:
1) the 1364-2005 LRM is copyrighted by the IEEE
2) there are large sections that would need to be re-typed
or cut&pasted from the Frame source

It would seem that we would need to donate AMS to the IEEE
in order to be able to use the relevant sections of the
1364 LRM.

As a specific example, consider the system tasks, like $strobe
and $fopen.  The current AMS LRM does not provide any system
tasks for reading or writing to the file, you can only open
and close it (though 1364-1995 did provide for writing).
The 1364-2005 drafts include a whole lot more file tasks and
functions.


The alternative would be to use the SystemVerilog approach,
in which the sections of 1364 are included by reference only,
and the SV LRM then spells out only the changes (additions).
This is a significant change from the current configuration
of the AMS LRM.
