Yes, this is my proposed solution (A) to this problem. All the more reason if they are not specific to transportation as I was worried they were. A note to the TSC: the existing Contract has only optional constructs so it would seem that (A) would meet your users needs by leaving the "old" constructs absent and only using the new constructs you have defined. >Moreover I would suggest to add a Sub-Contract (0..n) too. Can we please leave that question to the response to PRD01? I know it is a simple change but at this (very!) late stage to prepare PRD01 for review I would like to restrict discussions only to things that at this moment are broken or unresolved. . . . . . . . . . . .
