Summary of comments on the CIF DDLm Discussion paper

[David Brown]

I have attached a .pdf with an edited version of the comments I have 
received on the Discussion Paper I recently circulated.  This contained 
a number of queries about the directions in which the DDLm CIF 
dictionaries should be developing.  The attachment includes the 
discussion that has appeared on the COMCIFS and CIF developers 
discussion lists as well as a number of comments that were not so widely 
circulated.  I have edited all these to produce a more or less coherent 
discussion to make the arguments easier to follow.

We will be following up these discussions at the Osaka Congress during 
the closed COMCIFS meetings.  Anyone interested in these topics is 
welcome to attend the closed meetings so that, with luck, we may come to 
some consensus.  The times of the meetings are given in the attached 
document.

The attached .pdf contains 21 pages.

I look forward to some lively sessions!

David Brown
