Description

In the expansion algorith, step 7 says:

https://github.com/w3c/json-ld-api/blob/9db973ab00f9f0764943b497d5be0c62a9d78c77/index.html#L2524-L2529

On line 2527 there is an opening parenthesis that is not closed. I can only guess that the intention was to close the parenthesis on the same line, or is the "where" intended as a condition?

Research direction

Open index.html at lines 2524-2529 and read step 7 of the expansion algorithm. Determine whether the opening parenthesis should close on line 2527 or whether “where” introduces a condition. Done means the specification text has unambiguous, balanced wording.
