--------------------------------------
Status: Rejected
Type: Technical

Reported by: Bob Harold <[email-masked]>
Date Reported: 2018-03-02
Rejected by: Benoit Claise (IESG)

Section: 7.18.1

Original Text
-------------
   In order for a device to implement a feature that is dependent on any
   other features (i.e., the feature has one or more "if-feature" sub-
   statements), the device MUST also implement all the dependant
   features.

Corrected Text
--------------
   In order for a device to implement a feature that is dependent on any
   other features (i.e. the feature is a sub-statement of another 
   "if-feature" statement), the device MUST also implement all the 
   dependent features.

Notes
-----
The direction of the dependency is stated backwards.
Consider for example:

if-feature aaa;
    statements ...;
    if-feature bbb;

This should allow feature aaa to exist without feature bbb.
bbb should depend on aaa, but aaa should not depend on bbb
 --VERIFIER NOTES-- 
The current text is correct, according to Kent Watsen
