Suggestion: Check out DEC64 for insight

[oles]

Hey! Love the proposal!

I didn't find much by searching for DEC64, the "decimal floating point format for the next generation of
application programming languages", from Douglas Crockford. He seems to have lots of experience with what this proposal is about.

I'd just like to share it in case it slipped by the radar, and in case there's something useful in it for this proposal ✌️

That's awesome, thank you! At a minimum, we should add this to the list of related resources.
