Issue 18588: document refers to its numbered components as Chapters - call them clauses and subclauses (cvl-ftf)
Source: Microsoft (Mr. Steve Cook, stcook(at)microsoft.com)
Nature: Revision
Severity: 
Summary: The document refers to its numbered components as Chapters – I think they ought to be called Clauses and Subclauses (especially if there are aspirations for becoming an ISO spec as suggested by 6.3). They are also occasionally called Sections and Subsections.  I think that top level clauses should start on new pages, and there should be no dangling paragraphs. I would recommend referring to ISO document rules and following them.

document refers to its numbered components as Chapters - call them clauses and subclauses

The document refers to its numbered components as Chapters . I think they ought to be called Clauses and Subclauses (especially if there are aspirations for becoming an ISO spec as suggested by 6.3). They are also occasionally called Sections and Subsections.  I think that top level clauses should start on new pages, and there should be no dangling paragraphs. I would recommend referring to ISO document rules and following them.
