Stu,

I think I agree with Mehdi - the proposal would be unharmed if you were to renumber the proposed subclause 8.7.1 to be 8.8.

The only catch is that various references to 8.x within the proposal text would then be wrong. I found the following:

8.7 (would remain unchanged)
8.12 (becomes 8.13)
8.14 (becomes 8.15)
8.24 (becomes 8.25)

and, in the section "Add text to 8.11" the target subclause would then be 8.12, and the self-reference would be 8.8 instead of 8.7.1.

Thanks
Jonathan

Hi Stu,
I think option number 3 makes more sense, without re-arranging too much the
current proposal. Any other suggestion is welcome as well. I know Jonathan is
looking at this as well.
Thanks,
Mehdi

Mehdi,

There is a minor problem with Mantis 3001 that I am hoping we can correct as I am doing the editing of implementing this item in Draft 3. The proposal calls for creating a new subclause 8.7.1, but that violates an IEEE rule that we cannot have just a single subclause at a given level. In other words, we cannot have an 8.7.1 without also having an 8.7.2.

Some possible ways to fix this include:

Make all the new text part of 8.7 without having a subclause title

Split some of the existing 8.7 into a new 8.7.1 (making this proposal be 8.7.2)

Make this new subclause be 8.8 (bumping up the number of all subsequent subclauses)

Please let me know which way you would like me to proceed. I hope to finish draft 3 by the end of the day, Friday Nov 4th.

Stu
