I have marked the last sentence of 9.3.3.8 for deletion. >(2) In the last paragraph of "9.3 The stratified event >scheduler", the word "essentially" adds nothing to the >standard.

My only concern is that someone will now come back and say, "Pre-Active, Pre-NBA, Post-NBA, Pre-Postponed regions were not part of 1364 so how could they encompass the 1364 event regions? The word "essentially" was meant to mean, "for all practical purposes" when used in this context, showing that it was not meant to indicate that this was an exact match. If everyone agrees to delete "essentially" then I am fine with the suggestion. I have currently marked the word for deletion. I will not send out another version of the proposal until more feedback comes in. Thanks, Jim. Regards - Cliff >Regards, >Jim > >--------------------------------------------------------- >James H.
