ARs:

- AR: Bob Ross to draft requirements document for IBISCHK 7.1.1
  Bob said work would resume after the upcoming summit work was done.
- AR: Mike to check latest code for global variable change
  Mike said the geIbisVersion code was still there, and still used. Bob Ross said that was
  because BUG228 was not yet fixed.  Randy Wolff said BUG228 covered that.  Mike said
  prior to the bus_label code that the bug report was about, it was never used.  Randy
  said that code was not mentioned in the bug.  He also noted that the bug resulted in
  some desirable behavior, but it had to be implemented properly.
- AR: Weston Beal to prepare presentation on IBIS Quality Specification and checklist
  No report
- AR: Mike LaBonte to prototype root name checking
  Mike said he had resumed work. It was necessary to study the code further, as some
  necessary information was not available at the place where checking would be done.

AR: Mike LaBonte to suggest BUG228 language for geIbisVersion cleanup.
