at home, today, able to download that document.  *shocked* - it's 154 
frickin pages!

chapters 5-7 cover the format itself.

section 10.1 covers 16-bit FP numbers
section 10.2 covers 11-bit unsigned FP numbers
section 10.3 covers unsigned  10-bit FP numbers
section 10.4 covers a *custom* FP number format

five chapters are derived from OpenGL image formats

chapter 18 covers a "scalable" texture format.

holy cow.  and people implement this in hardware??  *manic scared laughter*
