  Use ASIS instead of Asis. This is because ASIS is an acronym,
  not a name. Ada is a name not an acronym, unless you are talking
  about the American Dental Association or Americans with Disabilities
  Act.

!resolution  Accept, with modification.

Capitalization of ASIS was not used consistently throughout the
specification.  The document has been corrected so that ASIS" is the
acronym and "Asis" is the name of the package.

Specifically, the following changes were made (selectively):

	"ASIS." => "Asis." (when the package Asis is referenced)
	"Asis_" => "ASIS_" (when the acronym ASIS is referenced)
	"Asis " => "ASIS " (when the acronym ASIS is referenced)

In addition, a paragraph was added to section 1.3 explaining our use
of capitalization with respect to the above.

Changes were made in ASIS version 2.0.M.
