Regarding vendor preparation for RDA, it would have been difficult to
develop a system to accommodate RDA out of the box when RDA wasn't available
until June 23rd of this year. However it would indeed have been possible
for ILS vendors to redesign their systems to suppo
ptual models as their basis.
