David,

sorry, there was a concern that the prior wording was ambiguous in the case of
packed dimensions, so the new wording is as follows:

Change section 26.1.2

FROM:
 A formal argument is an open array when a range of one or more of its dimensions,
  packed or unpacked, is unspecified (denoted by using empty square brackets ([])).
 
TO:
 A formal argument is an open array when a range of one or more of its dimensions,
  packed or unpacked, is unspecified. An open array is like a multi-dimensional
  dynamic array formal in both packed and unpacked dimensions, and is thus
  denoted using the same syntax as dynamic arrays, using [] to denote an open dimension.
