Kevin:

I am still reachable here. I agree with Gerry’s response that what was 
actually approved and therefore incorporated was revision 2 which was 
posted following the CAP meeting. Yes, we should amend the minutes.

i think rev. 2 includes all of the changes requested at the CAP meeting. 
i observe that the obsoleting of ILI bit in the two sense data 
descriptors (which was specifically called out as requested during the 
meeting) is present in rev. 2.

I think what happened is that I showed a rev. 2 at the start of the 
meeting that had not yet been posted to T10 site, as a clean copy of 
updates requested during the March T10 meeting. The May meeting change 
requests were rolled into the same revision after the May CAP 
discussion. I also note that the May 6 date of rev. 2 is at the end of 
the May T10 week.

Perhaps the meeting minutes should be revised to indicate that we 
started with rev. 1 and rev. 1 as revised became rev. 2.

[Houlder]*

Gerry Houlder presented a proposal to make all aspects of the WRITE LONG 
(and READ LONG) command obsolete, except those aspects that create 
uncorrectable errors in blocks (15-075r2 
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.t10.org_cgi-2Dbin_ac.pl-3Ft-3Dd-26f-3D15-2D075r.pdf&d=DQMFAg&c=IGDlg0lD0b-nebmJJ0Kp8A&r=TxI1DC4HavpWBdSmUqvdNvSwgOklhaW328zLt5AOpPM&m=DlKfW8ezg-KFTATzebtQ5XEpsltPuwvofjB2TWV4p-U&s=mILnGIOAiLzXMBEV4AgPDsa3-vkAbYrbLiKW2qkIvWk&e=>). 
The group requested several changes (including making the ILI bit 
obsolete in a pair of block sense data descriptors). Gerry agreed to 
prepare a new revision.
Gerry Houlder moved that 15-075r3 (r2 as revised) be recommended for 
inclusion SBC-4 and SPC-5. Brad Besmer seconded the motion. The motion 
passed 12:0:5.

However, I cannot find 15-075r3. SBC-4, R.8 Revision 7(20 May 2015) , 
states "c) 15-075r2 Obsolete READ LONG and WRITE LONG except for write 
uncorrectable " was incorporated. What happened?
