On p 69, he writes: "Remember, how name lookup works ... [snip]". In short, he is saying that the search begins in the actual scope and continues outward to the scope where the name is eventually found. All names in that scope overload, no other scopes are considered. This looks to me like the standard name lookup algorithm for functions. But 13.3.1.2. [over.match.oper] says that lookup rules for operators work differently - if I understood the Standard right, which is not guaranteed, of course. Who is right?
