Re: [sv-bc] SystemVerilog 3.1A Errata And IEEE P1800 Activities

I have one.

I'm writing from home and I don't have access to the web.

I looked a couple of days ago at the 'static prefix' description of
always_comb. I'm sorry to say it's almost uncomprehensible. I know what
it's supposed to mean from the correspondence when it was being worked on.
At least I think I know what it is supposed to mean. But even knowing in
advance the interpretation, I was unable to make the correspondence between
the description and the interpretation.

Someone who does not already know what it is supposed to mean is going to
have real trouble with it.

In addition to fixing the description, a couple of examples would greatly
help.

Thanks,
Shalom
