In July '90, the Modula-2 Standard Committee had a target of 10-15-90 for a revised draft proposl text available. Does anyone know if this actually happened?

I have every indication that a new DP is being worked on by people who are trying to do a good job so another DP, after this one, will not be needed. Information on how people may get copies of the new DP will be posted once the new DP is available.

The I/O modules ~{_have not yet been revised, and the proposals for the type complex are up for discussion again. A few other pieces are still being worked on.
