Hi

The paper text http://j3-fortran.org/doc/meeting/180/07-201r1.txt  seems 
not updated correctly.  In the second edit, it says the following

[418:13.7.156p5] Transmogrify paragraph as follows
  Move the final sentence to the beginning.
  Insert new sentences
    "If X is an IEEE infinity, the result is an IEEE NaN.  If X is an
     IEEE NaN, the result is the same NaN."
  Change "The" to "Otherwise, the".
This gives the new paragraph as
  "If X has the value zero, the result has the same value as X.  If X is 
an
   IEEE infinity, the result is an IEEE NaN; IEEE_INVALID signals.  If X 
is
                                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   an IEEE NaN, the result is the same NaN.  Otherwise, the result has the
   value X \times $b^{I-e}$, where $b$ and $e$ are as defined in 13.4 for
   the representation for the value of X in the model that has the radix 
of
   X but no limits on exponent values."
{Specify the result for IEEE INF and NaN.}



By inserting the new sentences "If X is an IEEE infinity, the result is an 
IEEE NaN.  If X is an IEEE NaN, the result is the same NaN." does not give 
to the new paragraph as what it states next.  Didn't we agree to remove 
IEEE_INVALID signals from the edits?


A second issue, I can't find paper 07-189r2.  Can someone point out to me 
where it is?

Thanks,

Jim Xia
