Re: Motion P1788.1/M001.02: No
Frederic & All,
The term “natural interval extension” appears only on p. 9 of P1788.1. I will think of “adjusting”
this page so there is no contradiction with the way “natural interval extension” is used in the past.
Surely, suggestions are welcome on how to re-word.
Regards,
Ned
