Re: Mantis Issue 2266: Signal-Flow Disciplines

Dave,
    I have to say, that I did not understand the post you quoted as it
seemed that backward compatibility was being used to justify not making
the fix, whereas the fix was being requested for reasons of both
consistency and backward compatibility. The problem now is that the LRM
is a weird state where in section 1.3.4 the LRM clearly limits signal
flow ports to being potential only, whereas in section 1.3.5 an example
is given that uses a current signal flow ports.

I will create a new issue in Mantis for this.
