Good morning - and thanks for your patience. We are nearly complete with the 
property rights notice for the display specifiers ldf.

I expect to be able to make the final documents available to you within 3-5 
working days!

Good morning Andrew!

There is no copyright license for the attachments - yet; nevertheless, I expect 
the below text - or something like it - to apply. I cannot guarantee there will 
be no changes between now and when the CAR request is fulfilled. I certainly 
expect this will not take as long as it did with the schema.

I realise there is little you can do while you wait on lawyers, but I'm
worried worried:  Will the delay be this long every time we try to
clarify the release of this kind of thing?

(And we are yet to tell if the final form of the documents will be
suitable - legally or technically!). 

Thanks,

I regret that the documents couldn't be delivered in the time frame I gave you 
- and apologize for not updating you on progress earlier this week.

Everyone I've worked with here concerning the document delivery dislikes 
delays. Even when necessary/obligatory diligence interferes.

I have to defer to Hongwei for the next step. Have a great weekend all!

The only feedback we has is:

Can you when updating this for us in future ensure you use the exact
same format, but prefix the copyright header with # characters, to
ensure they are easily recognised as distinct from the LDIF data?

We import these files as-is for easy correction, but we had to modify
the header manually.  

See
