Subject: UK Comment 2


Greetings!

With regard to UK Comment 2,

The text contains many uses of ambiguous terminology, such as "last page 
number" meaning "preceding page number".

What is at issue here is a lack of specific references to other parts of 
the standard. I have listed the page numbers (PDF version) along with 
the problematic text and suggested resolutions below. (Note that in 1.1, 
all sections will be numbered, and ISO formatting requirement, which 
will make referencing a little easier.)

Most of these are listed in Martin Bryan's post to the comment list.

Does anyone disagree with the suggested resolutions?
