beach: I moved all the wscl issues into the draft folder and changed their status to "draft" ... I would suggest that all new issues start in the draft status, are then reviewed for format, etc and then moved to proposed status before discussion. Also new issues need to include the `\issue` annotations. Just my two cents, scymtym probably has some additional thoughts.

OK, I need to have a look at that before I submit the next issue. Not that I have any planned at the moment.

I was thinking of doing one for LOOP b.c. the BNF syntax in the dictionary entry is ambiguous and the description for-as-arithmethic is the iteration chapter is a bit misleading. Also, I'd like to do a TYPE-ERROR one for MAKE-HASH-TABLE that addesses :test, etc. ... accounting for the possibility of implementations extending that.

Hmmm, maybe the readme should describe the issue submission issue, with a sample issue?

yitzi's description of the new issue process makes sense to me. i'm not sure whether the initial issue submission/draft status should include adding \issue annotations to the TeX sources since that is going to be the critical but also finicky part

scymtym: That makes sense. Some of the existing issues don't really have a recommendation of the text to replace. Just a notice that there is an problem with the current text. I would think that having all of the sections filled out (with the exception of discussions) along with well defined and obvious places where \issue needs to be put.

i agree for an issue in state "proposal". for "draft" issues, not fulfilling those criteria may be fine (as seems to be the case with the current proposals)

yitzi
Oh yeah, sorry for not being clear. I was talking about the criteria to move to "proposal."

scymtym: I pushed some more changes to y-fixes. I've got contractors running around my house, so it wasn't a lot. I left off right before 62c22af2557fa91fa3237502a0a69bfc99fff73a. Some x3j13 commits still need to be done.

yitzi: i cleanup up a few more and marked commits that need work with "TODO" in the commit message
