New IBISCHK6 bugs:
- Mike showed bug_TBD.txt.
- Bob: This is the only message of that kind in the message list.
  - The "TBD" note means the code for that check should be moved from
    the Component module to the Model module.
- Mike: That might mean renumbering the messages.
- Bob: We could do one of:
  - Do nothing.
  - Change the message.
  - Keep it in Component.
- Mike: The primary issue is to eliminate the message.
  - Rearranging the code is secondary.
- Bob: Atul had provided some response to this earlier.

- Mike: The first ERROR message in the bug report is actually expected.
- Bob: The test should be run with -numbered to make clear which error this is.

AR: Mike LaBonte to run TBD testcase with -numbered and submit to Bob Ross

- Bob Ross moved to adjourn. Mike LaBonte seconded. The meeting ended without objection.
