What specific roadblocks are you referring to?

The issue I am aware of that can be resolved by enhancements to the repository 
have to do with what is contained in a FIXT repository and what is contained in 
the FIX5 repository and then how do you configure at FIXT+FIX5 repository 
either statically or dynamically.

The other issue is a controversial design feature that most vendors have 
addressed and that is the ability to specify DefaultApplVersID on the logon 
message which requires state information outside of a particular instance. This 
is Application Version Independence.
