Hi Brad,
Here are a couple of comments. Some of the items need a response and some go
to the SV-BC.

1) Top of p. 21, "size of an unpacked arrays"
DWS: I Cannot find this item.

2) In 4.3, first sentence, are Verilog 'memories' still relevant?

            http://www.boyd.com/1364_btf/report/full_pr/254.html
DWS: This is an SV-BC issue.

3) Middle of page 23, "Out of range index" -?-> "Out-of-range index"
DWS: This is an SV-BC issue.

4) Bottom of page 23, "An single element"
DWS: This is an SV-BC issue.

5) In dynamic arrays, what is the bit order? This is relevant to,
    for example, the meaning of "+:"/"-:" selects. (See p. 53 of
    V2K LRM.)

6) In 4.6.2, "addr.size()". Should this be "addr.size"?
DWS: Both usages are allowed. A method is defined as name() but can use just
name.

7) In 4.7, "a fixed size array" needs a hyphen in "fixed-size".
DWS: Fixed in CH-40.

        8) Sentence before 4.8, "p" in wrong font.
DWS: I assume you would prefer either regular or bold (instead of italic).

        9) Section 4.8 -- why 'subroutine' instead of 'method'?
    Or are tasks and functions also subroutines?
DWS: Good question.

10) First paragraph in 4.9, "the index expressions is not".
DWS: Fixed in CH-41

11) Two sentences down, "associative an associative".
DWS: Fixed in CH-41

12) In section 4.10.2, twice in the text "delete method" should
    be "delete() method" with delete() in bold typewriter font.
DWS: Fixed in CH-41

13) In section 4.10.4, "the first() function" should be
    "the first() method"?
DWS: Fixed in CH_41
