RE: [sv-dc] Editorial change for Mantis 3398

A ripple effect.

Later in the proposal there is a change:

At the end of 7.2.2 Assigning to structures, modify:

The initial assignment expression within a data type shall be ignored when
using a data type to declare a net that does not have a user-defined nettype
(see 6.7).

Should the cross reference 6.7 be changed to the 6.7.1 I suggested be added?
I do not see any other cross references that might be affected.

That numbering seems eminently reasonable and much cleaner.

Subject: [sv-dc] Editorial change for Mantis 3398

All,

I would like permission to make an editorial change to the subclause
numbering proposed in Mantis 3398. The proposal has the change:

In section 6.7 Net declaration, below the syntax table 6-1

Change:

Net declarations without assignments are described in this clause.

To:

Net declarations without assignments and whose nettype is not a user-defined
nettype are described in this clause.

At the end of 6.7 Net declaration, ADD 2 new sections

6.7.1 Net Declaration with user-defined nettype

The two changes contradict each other. The first says 6.7 doesn't describe
something, and the second change then adds that description to 6.7 (as
subclauses).

In looking things over, I think a clean way to handle this is to create a
new 6.7.1 subclause right before the sentence, "Net declarations without
assignments.". The new subclause would be titled "6.7.1 Net declarations
with built-in net types". The proposed 6.7.1 would become 6.7.2, and so on.

Is this renumbering OK?
