Hi Bill,

Seems totally correct to me.

No.

What figure?  There are two tables, and no figures.

If you mean table 2.2, the text correctly says "some kinds of scoping units" 
[32:8].  This table has never covered all scoping units (even though in previous 
standards it claimed it did, it just didn't!).

The derived type definition scoping unit is uninteresting as far as this table 
goes.

Maybe I've missed some obvious goof in some wording somewhere, but I don't see 
it.  Perhaps you misread?  If you still think there is a problem, please 
explain.

Cheers,
