Hi, Shalom -
We just went through all your comments this morning; thanks for
the work of generating them.  We had a few questions that will
probably show up in the minutes:

Parameters are in the "Data types" clause of 1364-2005.  What are they,
if they're not a data type?

The comma was inadvertently omitted from Syntax 5-13.
However, we think that the comma and "or" *should* be in Table 4-3,
and that 1364 should have it, since an event expression can be
   expression or expression
and it seems that each "expression" could be made up of pieces
involving other operators in Table 4-3.  Couldn't you have

  @( a + b  or  c + d)


  @( a && b  or  c && d)

and need to have a precedence defined for the event or?
(I'm not quite sure about what digital event expressions look like.)
