### II.22.27
Edit rule 12 to specify that "The method signature defined by *MethodBody* shall match those defined by *MethodDeclaration* exactly if *MethodDeclaration* defines a method on an interface or be *covariant-return-compatible-with* (§I.8.7.1) if *MethodDeclaration* represents a method on a class."

## Function Pointer Type Identity

The unmanaged calling convention of the function pointer type no longer contributes to the type identity. For the purposes of type identity, the only important bit is whether the calling convention is managed or unmanaged.

### I.8.7 Assignment compatibility

For the purpose of type compatibility when determining a type from a signature:

iv) ~~Any calling convention~~ _Whether the calling convention is managed or unmanaged_ is considered part of the type.

## Unsigned data conversion with overflow detection

`conv.ovf.<to type>.un` opcode is purposed for converting a value on the stack to an integral value while treating the stack source as unsigned. Ecma does not distinguish signed and unsigned values on the stack so such opcode is needed as a complement for `conv.ovf.<to type>`.
