Reply to: RE>> Draft Standard Re: > Has anyone any idea when the ISO standard for Modula-2 might become > final? The next meeting of the ISO WG13 is in Tubingen, Germany in the first week of July 1991. Much of he draft is more or less final. Major things that remain include: 1) I/O library -- there are still difficulties reaching agreement on fundamentals 2) termination and cleanup -- I think we are getting close 3) exceptions -- the list of what must be detected and the method of handling needs work 4) inclusion of the type COMPLEX -- this seems to have been accepted and only the size of the library appears to be at issue. 5) many small details. If I have missed a major issue in my haste, I am sure Randy Bush is listening and will add to this. Rick Sutcliffe Canadian Chair, WG13 (Modula-2)
