I know that a similar topic has been discussed before

in the thread:

http://x46.deja.com/=dnc/[ST_rn=ps]/getdoc.xp?AN=492864321&CONTEXT=95495
0884.454033422&hitnum=1

It discusses the reasoning behind the subject.

What I would like to know is:

Can someone provide me a reference to the ruling that
footnotes and examples are non-normative, I could not find
the text to such a rule on my own.  Can
someone tell me where that can be found.

Thanks
