The last example in 4.7.2 should say: returns "12.346E2" 2. 4.7.3 includes the rule: "A sub-picture must contain at least one character that is an optional-digit-sign or a member of the decimal-digit-family." I believe a new rule (or amendment) is required to say: "The mantissa part must contain at least one character that is an optional-digit-sign or a member of the decimal-digit-family." e.g. so that a pattern such as ".e99" is not allowed. 3. 4.7.3 includes the rule: "A sub-picture must not contain a grouping-separator-sign adjacent to a decimal-separator-sign." Should there in fact be a rule to say that a grouping-separator-sign is not allowed at the end of an integer part? e.g. consider the pattern "#,". 4. There is no rule to say that grouping-separator-signs can not be adjacent. Should there be? If this is allowed, I believe that by following the algorithm in 4.7.4 (Analysing the picture string) currently duplicates get ignored e.g. format-number(12345.678, '#,,###') returns 12,345 120085 1 mike 2015-05-05 17:17:04 +0000 The changes were accepted and have been applied. 120452 2 mike 2015-05-23 18:56:41 +0000 *** Bug 28682 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
