What is being revised?
The Technical Committee voted to revise the ANS Forth standard with a limited agenda: • Withdrawal of “obsolescent words” • Ratification of “clarifications” • Support for embedded and ROMable systems • Support for internationalisation and extended characters sets • Clarifications to the Standard, with the proviso that proposals will be considered under this item that clarify the language of the Standard to reflect the original intent of the TC, without making a substantive technical change. Note the c & d were requested by the ISO FastTrack process. The committee is not obligated to consider proposals falling outside this agenda without first voting to extend it. This requires a 2/3 vote of the Committee.
