 RE:  Clarification of QUALIFY

 It seems the vote is close to unanimous.

 When an <inputRange> of 1.4 is resolved I can figure out to subtract
 one to get the actual offset; I can do the same with the position
 specified with the qualifier.  Note also that an imbedded structure
 should be defined at a position relative to 1; the current behaviour
 for QUALIFY is more of an oversight than deliberate.

 The upshot is, however, that the next sublevel will contain an

     >>>>>  INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE   <<<<<

 (Did I emphasise that enough?)

 Anywhere you have specified a number with QUALIFY you'll have to
 increase that number as of sublevel X'0017'.

 I expect to send the new sublevel to Marist over the weekend.
