[Cfp-interest 3294] Re: C26 Complex Related Changes

[Jerome Coonen]

We had a task to comment on Damian's first set of proposals re. the
language around complex arithmetic. Here is a file (delayed by a ay of
muddled distribution attempts) with my comments overlaid on Jim's comments.
https://wiki.edg.com/pub/CFP/WebHome/C26-cmplx-mods-aug24-body-67-jwt_jtc.pdf

Caveat: my browser PDF viewer botches all but the first comment, but the
file looks fine if downloaded. Good luck.
