In addition to the Linear Algebra SIG proposal from SG14, we should monitor and give feedback to these proposals:

`short float` and fixed-size floating point types: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p0192r4.html

Please add others. Thanks.

This proposal didn't receive strong support in EWG. I'd like to wait
until the updated proposal is available.

Thanks JF, good to have the EWGI chair keeping an eye out for us.

Sorry for the giant font.

Expect something (not quite sure if that's going to be a revision or a new P number) in the pre-Kona mailing. (Hopefully I can get something together in time for that.)

[Michael Wong]

Thanks Michal, this is of great interest to SG19, obviously. We will discuss on our call whether we want to give feedback on this if any to help with the proposal.

For the record, the incoming approach, instead of adding a fundamental type, will extend the definition of floating point types, to be further extensible in the future, without fundamental changes to the core language.
