I have a comment on the first formal motion "Standardized notation in
interval analysis".
In section 3 regarding the intmacros.sty
file it is stated that \a and \A etc. be used to
denote interval quantities. In the last paragraph some
exceptions are given for \i and \v and \D which have to
be written \ii and \vv and \DD in order to
avoid conflict with other macros.
A similar conflict appears with the Danish character "O with a slash" (Ö)
and the Polish "L with a small slash" used in *Lech Wa?e;sa. *These
characters are usually written \o \O \l \L and therefore the interval
characters should be written \oo \OO \ll \LL.
Please note that \aa \AA is used for a Swedish character
"A with a circle" (Å), so it does NOT work to let the doubling
of the character be the standard.
Sincerely,
Bo Einarsson
