>Ted, what is your opinion of my proposal, please?

I think that, for the most part, the concerns I expressed in my post about it a
little over 2 weeks ago on the "Standard Queue status thread still hold. I'm
sorry I can't give a link to it, but my newsreader barfs whenever I try. Google
groups's message ID for it is <z9aN7.41127$xS6.69040@www.newsranger.com>. Go to
their advanced group search and enter that in the message ID field.

However, there are some very good ideas in there, most notably the unconstrained
array conversions and the Direction type, that have made their way into the
Strawman.

Excepting the stuff I have raised issues about, is there anything else in there
that you think really needs to be in the Strawman before we proceed?
