RE: [sv-ec] Mantis 2380 proposal updated

Jonathan,

The proposed final sentence of 11.2.2 would say

    "Assignment compatibility of aggregate expressions is defined in 6.22.3 and, for arrays, 7.6."

But unpacked arrays are a kind of aggregate expression, the others being unpacked structs and unpacked unions.

If the reader refers to 6.22.3, they will see

   "Assignment compatibility of unpacked arrays is discussed in detail in 7.6."

I'd argue that this enough, and that 7.6 needn't be mentioned again in 11.2.2.  But if it is to be mentioned in 11.2.2, better that it were phrased more like the proposed sentence from 6.22.3, such as

    "Assignment compatibility of aggregate expressions is defined in 6.22.3 and, in particular, the assignment compatibility of unpacked arrays is discussed in detail in 7.6."
