Hiya,

I spotted a couple of typos in the T13 spec. Do I report them on this 
group, or do I e-mail someone in particular?

I'm afraid I don't have them in front of me, so I can't replicate them 
all here for this e-mail. A few are included:

One of them was that IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE word 80 did not 
have bit 7 set as 'supports ATA-7', whereas IDENTIFY DEVICE 
does. I'm assuming this is a mistake - am I correct?

Word 80, Bit 3 on both tables is also set for 'supports ATA-3', but 
AIUI following release of ATA-7, ATA-3 is declared obsolete, so 
these bits are too. Is that correct?

I believe that there are a blank pages inserted in the PDF versions 
of the spec splitting the IDENTIFY DEVICE table and the IDENTIFY 
PACKET DEVICE table too - these seem unintentional.

If I know this is the correct place, I'll pass them on. If it's not, could 
someone tell me where these should go?

Best wishes,

Drew
