Hello,

This looks like the 'ERO/RRO in PCRpt' discussion we have had with
Julien. While the ERO/RRO split makes this a non-issue in that case, we
seem to lack a general mechanism to discern 'intended' and 'effective'
state, notably in the case when the PCE needs to recover the intended
state from the PCC.

Does that sum up the problem?

Thanks,
Robert
