Hi Brad,

In reviewing the BNF changes for ERR-9 I came across the following:

In A.2.2.1, REPLACE port_type with

   port_type ::=
       data_type
    | net_type_or_trireg { packed_dimension }
    | [ signing ] packed_dimension { packed_dimension }

The original was
 
   port_type ::=
         data_type
         | net_type [ signing ] { packed_dimension }
         | trireg [ signing ] { packed_dimension }
         | [ signing ] { packed_dimension } range

It wasn't clear to me why [signing] was removed from the following line
in the proposed BNF.

     | net_type_or_trireg { packed_dimension } // proposed
     | net_type_or_trireg [ signing ] { packed_dimension } // should be this?

Neil
