The Barcelona meeting left a great many issues unresolved, and uncertainty even about some basic definitions. Consequently, the possible solution space for a rewritten Application is very large, and the Drafting Committee simply did not have time to find an optimal solution in that space. Consequently, we have produced three alternative drafts.
Alternative one is closest to the original.
It attempts to include the consensus points from the Barcelona meeting, with very little consideration of consequences or internal consistency. Alternative two attempts to simplify the structure in a manner that reflects some input from work in other SOs. This draft explores the implications of that kind of a structure.
