Arpad,

 

I also agree that there should be no rules on Model Specific parameters.
Unfotunately, (Type Tap) parameters must now be of the form tap(-2,
tap(-1, tap(0, tap(1, tap(2, . .

 

So the only thing that this BIRD does is allow the user to enter (Type
Tap) parameters as tap(M2, tap(M1, tap(C0, tap(P1, tap(P2, . .

Walter,

 

I think this is a good idea.  For reserved parameters

I think we will need to do something you are suggesting,

but for Model Specific parameters I am not sure we can

or should.  The name of the parameter in that case should

be left to the model maker, not the spec.  The best we

can or should do for Model Specific parameter names is a

general rule on what characters are prohibited, for example

"-", and what characters can't be used in the first position

of the parameter name.  I don't think we should get into

the business of defining naming conventions, such as what

you are suggesting for the tap names.

 

Thanks,

 

Arpad

All,

 

I plan to submit the enclosed BIRD to the Open Forum. Please read and be
prepared to decide in this Tuesday's ATM meeting whether this BIRD should
be considered for 5.1 or be deferred to 5.2.
