DTV11 — DTV Issue: use of "first element" in scale definitions

  • Key: DTV11-83
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19171
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: General Electric ( Mark Linehan)
  • Summary:

    In clause 11.2, the glossary entries for "Gregorian year of months scale", "Gregorian year of days scale", and "Gregorian month of days scale" each include Necessities of the form "The first element of the ...", where "first" is unstyled. This is a problem because Necessities should never have unstyled text. More importantly, these Necessities could instead by written as "The first member of the ...." If not, the second Note under "index origin member" in Annex D.2.3 is wrong.
