Right. AI05-0139-2 contains the syntax, AI05-0142-4 contains a related 
feature, and AI05-0212-1 contains the changes needed to the predefined 
containers for the first two.

I'd wait to read those until next week; Tucker is supposed to be providing 
major updates to AI05-0139-2 and AI05-0142-4 by tomorrow afternoon and I'll 
be posting them over the weekend before leaving for Vallencia. (AI05-0212-1 
is mostly empty still, waiting for the other two to get much closer to 
completion. We had problems deciding on names of things in the past (even 
though no one use those names, we still have to have them), but otherwise 
the basic structure is already known).

Also in the next few days, the next AARM draft will be posted.

                               Randy.
