Bug 1082: "delimited" is incorrect Rejected
http://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1082

Line 74750 introduces the term "delimited" for the lines in question:
"The token shall be from the current position in the input until a
token is delimited according to one of the rules below"

This report is  rejected.  The use of the term is clearly stated
in the previous paragraph.

Bug 0001083: "next" character is misleading Accepted
http://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1083

This bug is marked for TC3-2008

Bug 1084: rule 3, 4, 5 do not say that a token is started, if needed OPEN
http://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1084


Bug 0001085: "token shall be from the current position in the input" is incorrect  OPEN
http://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1085


1086: Token "Recognition" is misleading and the usage of "word" in that section should be clarified. Rejected
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1086

We discussed this issue during the 2014-04-12 conference call and
agree with the comments in Note: 0003943.  This bug is rejected.
Note also that Merriam Webster's dictionary is the underlying
dictionary for the standard; not Wiktionary.  It defines recognition
as "the sensing and encoding of printed or written data by a machine".

Regarding the use of "word", note that it is a defined term.  See
XBD 3.446 which says that in the shell command language, a word is
"a token other than an operator."
