<P>The example in 13.7.6.2 [<A href="https://wg21.link/temp.spec.partial.match#2">temp.spec.partial.match</A>] paragraph 2 reads,</P>

<PRE>
  A&lt;int, int, 1&gt;   a1;   //<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> uses #1</SPAN>
  A&lt;int, int*, 1&gt;  a2;   //<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> uses #2, </SPAN>T<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> is </SPAN>int<SPAN CLASS="cmnt">, </SPAN>I<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> is </SPAN>1
  A&lt;int, char*, 5&gt; a3;   //<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> uses #4, </SPAN>T<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> is </SPAN>char
  A&lt;int, char*, 1&gt; a4;   //<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> uses #5, </SPAN>T1<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> is </SPAN>int<SPAN CLASS="cmnt">, </SPAN>T2<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> is </SPAN>char<SPAN CLASS="cmnt">, </SPAN>I<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> is </SPAN>1
  A&lt;int*, int*, 2&gt; a5;   //<SPAN CLASS="cmnt"> ambiguous: matches #3 and #5</SPAN>
</PRE>

<P>However, the referenced numbers are defined two pages earlier,
in 13.7.6.1 [<A href="https://wg21.link/temp.spec.partial.general#3">temp.spec.partial.general</A>] paragraph 3.  This is confusing and
should be changed.</P>

<P><B>Notes from the May, 2015 meeting:</B></P>

<P>This will be handled editorially; the status has been set to
"review" to check that the editorial change has been made.</P>
