Hi All,

I'm not aware of fixed-point being a WG21 agenda item since SG14's July
2020 meeting.

LEWG and SG6 discussed the Numerics TS in September of last year. P1889
<https://wg21.link/p1889> was one of the papers, and it mentions
fixed-point, so you might want to take a look at those minutes.

sci_at_[hidden] is the reflector for SG6.

Cheers,
John
