<h3>1.3 Adopt agenda</h3>

Sutter proposed the following amendments to the agenda (<a href="http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2005/1817.htm">J16/05-0077 = WG21/N1817</a>):

<ol>
<li>
Item 2.1, "Small group status reports" will be deferred to the Monday session.
</li>
<li>
Item 3.2, "Library TR Status and Planning" will be deferred to the Monday session.
</li>
<li>
Item 5.7, "Adjournment" will be changed to "Recess."
</li>
</ol>

<p>
Amendment 3, above is occasioned by a desire to be more consistent with the concept of the co-location of the WG21 and J16 meetings.  Since the WG21 meeting is technically in session throughout the duration of the J16 meeting, it was decided that WG21 does not actually adjourn at the end of the Sunday session.
</p>
<p>
Furthermore, since WG21 does not adjourn at the end of the Sunday session, it stands to reason that all formal votes conducted for J16 should also be conducted for WG21.  In the past, there has been some discussion as to whether WG21 votes should be conducted for such J16 agenda items as the approval of the minutes from the previous meeting, the approval of the agenda, and adjournment.  From now on, these items will be subject to WG21 votes.
</p>

Agenda adopted as amended by unanimous consent.

<h3>1.4 Select drafting committee.</h3>

Goldthwaite, Ottosen, and Vollmann were named to the drafting committee.

<h3>1.5 Approve minutes from last meeting</h3>

Approved by unanimous consent.

<h3>1.6 Review action items from previous meeting</h3>Action item for
Nelson: review the list of reflector subscribers to identify
individuals who no longer qualify for access to the reflectors and ask
them if they want to remain subscribers. This item remains open. Nelson
will get the subscriber list from Koenig and compare that with the
membership list.

<h2>2. Status, liaison, and action item reports</h2>

<h3>2.1 Small group status reports</h3>

deferred to Monday session.

</p>

<p>
Sutter reported that a Technical Report on Language Vulnerabilities will be prepared in conjunction with MISRA, the Motor Industry Software Reliability Association.  Sutter took an action item to request permission from JTC1 to appoint a liaison to MISRA, consisting of Goldthwaite, Meredith, and Vollmann, noting that the urgency of MISRA's schedule of work demands immediate action by WG21.

Plum is organizing TG5 Liaison meetings on the Friday afternoon immediately following each of these two meetings.
