Issue 17991: Location: p. 328 Regions - Resolve intentional ambiguity (uml25-ftf)
Source: International Business Machines (Mr. Omar Badreddin, oobahy(at)gmail.com)
Nature: Revision
Severity: Minor
Summary: This is an area of intentional ambiguity. Why not just make a choice regarding a region with no start state? I would suggest that UML should allow a region without a start state and go with the second choice "the region remains inactive while the containing state is active."
