Could you please elaborate on this?
Is "the decision" referring to NDR's decision?
Is this a change of the global-element/global-type decision
from London's outcome?
I'm a little bit concerned with this, mainly because the
schemas, tool-generation and various discussions on the
downstream of modelling carried out so far has been based
on the global-element/global-type (GEGT) decision. FPSC is also
beginning to proceed with instances based on schemas that
are based on the GEGT decision.
While I hope I'm wrong in interpreting your paragraph,
in the event that NDR has changed to LEGT or LELT now,
I'd like to get a sense of when will the final final final
decision come about before a lot more work and discussions
get wasted due to swapping back and forth.
Your kind clarification would be most useful to give us
a more concerted understanding of what declaration style
to base things on.
Thanks.
