Hello William,

Thanks, and for what it is worth neither point was a position, they were both matters of fact.

One correction, though. There is no proposal of mine to support. I wrote to Pete two days ago that in my view this needs no change to the BCP and that I am not proposing one, and that still holds. What I said about the general form was not a draft I am carrying. It was a remark on shape, in case anyone takes the view that this should be written down. My own view is that it does not need to be.

On visibility, I do not take part in the meetings either. The sessions are recorded, though, and the recordings are available afterwards. That is how I follow them, and the same is open to you.

If you are looking for something to contribute that nobody else in this discussion can, I would suggest it is not more text. You operate the kind of service this discussion is about. Figures from your own operation, whichever ones you are able to share, would corroborate the reasoning rather than leave it to be argued. They would carry further than any wording.

Regards,
Vittorio Moccia

Vittorio,

Both points are well taken and I accept them. The combination is not specific to re-origination during transition, and narrowing the sentence to a named category would reintroduce the heuristic dependency it is meant to remove. I should not have framed it that way.

The general principle as you have stated it - that absence of a prior chain must not be treated as a negative indicator for an i=1 signature, whoever produced it - is the right language and I support seeing it in adopted text.

I was not at the September meeting and do not have full visibility on where things stand or what you have in mind for this language. Is there a way I can usefully support your proposal beyond the statement above?

William
