Category: Inconsistency Committee Draft subsection: 6.1.2.1 Title: tidy-up specification of overlapping scopes Detailed description: The use of "non-overlapping" in 6.1.2.1p implies that the "scope" of an identifier excludes any block where the identifier is redeclared. This is inconsistent with the description of inner and outer scopes in paragraph 3; the latter is probably preferable. Change the word "non-overlapping" in paragraph 1 to "different".
