SCSI-3 Reserved Fields and Codes

[Gene Milligan]

I stmll have an objection which I have brought up several times. My
recollection is that Ed Gardner and I and perhaps many others pursued this
successfully during the July 1993 meetings. That is that Reserved Fields should
be required to be zero by the initiator and not checked by the target. This
increases the probability that future standards will not break the installed
base.
 
Beyond this point you should change SCSI-3 future standards to SCSI future
standards. The points made should also apply to SCSI-6.
