+\chapter{``T'' Standard Extension for Transactional Memory, Version 0.0}
+\label{sec:bits}
+
+This chapter is a placeholder for a future standard extension to
+provide transactional memory operations.
+
+\begin{commentary}
+Despite much research over the last twenty years, and initial
+commercial implementations, there is still much debate on the best way
+to support atomic operations involving multiple addresses.
+
+Our current thoughts are to include a small limited-capacity
+transactional memory buffer along the lines of the original
+transactional memory proposals.
