Discussion:
a.	For Feb. 21, 2023 meeting, Bob Ross will have to leave at 30 minutes past 
    the hour
b.	IBISCHK711 Executable Upload Progress – update ibischk7 folder with MAC 
    executables from David Banas. Bob reported that David generated the 
	executables and delivered them to Bob. The programs are now available on 
	the web site. There is still an error in the checksum, which Bob will 
	correct. [AR] Randy Wolff will forward the email from Mike LaBonte about 
	generating the user guide to Weston.
c.	Pending BUG regarding Platform in AMI – Weston Beal will investigate 
    further. Weston did not work on this issue this week.
d.	New IBISCHK720 Parser Development Specification quote increased to 
    $2000.00 and March 20, 2023 delivery per Atul’s vacation and request.
dd. Bob asked who can generate a 64-bit version of tschk2. Michael Schader 
    said that he can do it. He already has the source code. [AR] Michael will 
	generate the program and send it to Bob.
e.	Quality Specification and checklist power-aware discussion (continuation) 
    and DesignCon Summit presentation feedback. Mic added that the combination 
	of [pin mapping] with [merged pins] in package description needs to match. 
	A customer asked him if they can eliminate [pin mapping] if they use 
	[merged pins]. The task group understand that [merged pins] is an 
	auxiliary to [pin mapping], not a replacement. the requirements for 
	quality are:
    - All pins in [merged pins] are in [pin mapping] table. Does ibischk 
	already check this? How are pins in [pin mapping], [merged pins], and [bus 
	label] and pin signal names coordinated?
    - If the package model merges pins then [merged pins] must be defined.


Tabled topics (no discussion without motion):
 - None


Weston moved to adjourn. Randy seconded. Without objection the meeting ended.

Meeting ended: 12:52 pm ET
