Subject:    Comments on Clause 1, except subclause 1.3
References: 16-007r1

[22:40 1.4.1p1 first bullet] Insert "and that are not italicized" after
"(3.1)".

[23:3 1.4.1p1 fourth bullet, 23:12 1.4.2p1] Hyphenation (or lack
thereof) is inconsistent.  [23:3] needs three digits.  Either replace
"two-digit" with "two- or three-digit" at [23:3] and replace "two or
three digit" with "two- or three-digit" at [23:12], or replace
"two-digit" with "two or three digit" at [23:3].

[24:17-18 1.4.4p2] Delete "Expression ... (R722)." because it appears
not to have anything to do with the subject of the subclause.

[25:1-2 1.5p2(3)] Replace "an additional" with "a" because a processor
should be required to detect any form or relationship, not just an
additional one, whatever that means.

[26:7 1.6.3p1] Insert "extension" after "compatible".

[26:13 1.6.3p2] "must" shall be "shall".

[27:16 1.6.5p3 third bullet] Replace "negative zero imaginary part" with
"AIMAG(X) is negative zero" to avoid mixed metaphors.

[28:17-18 1.6.7p1 fourth bullet] Replace "Therefore, some ... Fortran
2003 processors ... edit descriptors" with "Therefore, the form produced
for certain combinations of values and G edit descriptors might be
different from the output form produced by some {\sc Fortran} 77
processors".  Compare to [27:19-29 1.6.5p3 fifth bullet].
