Description

During the review of the N4944-pre-cd draft I noticed that CWG 2642 didn't adjust the N to M in Note 3, which still says

[Note 3 : Overload resolution will discard those that cannot convert to the type specified by N (13.10.4). —end note]

But it seems that the intention of that note was to refer to the now renamed to M name.

Research direction

Search the draft source for [class.member.lookup] paragraph 7, Note 3, and compare it with the CWG 2642 change in the N4944-pre-cd draft. Update the note so its referenced name matches the renamed M, then verify the generated wording in the draft.
