    <thetext>QT approved comment:

In 2.6.2, the sentence &quot;It is felt that a judiciously chosen set of
.primitive. datatypes will serve...&quot; is unnecessary (and slightly pompous) self-justification: tell the reader what you&apos;ve decided and leave them to decide whether you&apos;ve got it right.</thetext>

    <thetext>On 30 Mar the WG decided to delete the paragraph in 2.6.2 beginning &quot;It is felt that a judiciously chosen set...&quot; and add a sentence at the end of the first paragraph reading &quot;The datatypes defined by this specification fall into these categories.&quot;</thetext>

    <thetext>(In reply to comment #1)
&gt; On 30 Mar the WG decided to delete the paragraph in 2.6.2 beginning &quot;It is felt
&gt; that a judiciously chosen set...&quot; and add a sentence at the end of the first
&gt; paragraph reading &quot;The datatypes defined by this specification fall into these
&gt; categories.&quot;
&gt; 

Well, that&apos;s the second sentence, but the whole para is deleted.  The semantics of the first sentence are retained in the addition to the first para.</thetext>

    <thetext>The change proposed above was approved by the WG on 30 March 2007
at its face to face meeting in Cambridge.  It is now reflected in 
the status quo version of the Datatypes spec.  Accordingly, I am 
setting the disposition of this issue to RESOLVED / FIXED.

If the originator of the issue would examine the change and let 
us know whether it satisfactorily resolves the problem or not, 
we&apos;d be grateful.   To signal that the resolution is acceptable, 
change the status of the issue to CLOSED.  Otherwise, to signal 
that it&apos;s NOT acceptable, change the status to REOPENED (and 
tell us what&apos;s wrong).

If we don&apos;t hear from you in the next three weeks, we&apos;ll assume 
that silence betokens consent, and close the issue ourselves.   </thetext>
