Yes, thanks! I just have two nitpicks:
1) line 1076: I think the following: "sequenced index iterator's
value_type is <i>constant</i>" is a little more clear. IMO the previous
wording gave the impression that only const_iteratorS are available.
2) I'm kind of leery about picking out sequenced_index for special
treatment since the same thing also applies to all other indices, so why
isn't the same thing repeated for them also?
HTH,
