http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=2313 ------- Additional Comments From cmsmcq@w3.org 2006-01-04 13:43 ------- Two amended versions have been proposed in email recently: (A) speaks of "the" revision of 754, not "a" revision, and moves "to that end". Diffed against the earlier proposal, it is: This datatype is introduced to make a variant of decimal that corresponds more closely to the floating-point decimal datatypes described by [an]^the^ expected forthcoming revision of IEEE/ANSI 754. ^To that end,^ "Precision" of values is retained, and the special values (two zeros, infinities, and not-a-number) are added [to that end]. (B) follows (A) but deletes "to that end" entirely: This datatype is introduced to make a variant of decimal that corresponds more closely to the floating-point decimal datatypes described by [an]^the^ expected forthcoming revision of IEEE/ANSI 754. "Precision" of values is retained, and the special values (two zeros, infinities, and not-a-number) are added [to that end].Received on Wednesday, 4 January 2006 13:43:15 GMT
