Indeed yes. The message I posted last night summarized the outstanding 
issues, as I see them at least.

I am not quite sure what Syd means by "Lou's DTYPES list" and I am 
completely in the dark as to why he thinks there is "quite a bit more 
work" to be done! The list of datatypes I circulated last weekend, with 
the one (or possibly two) extensions I suggested yesterday, seems to me 
a workable basis for progress, and is almost entirely compatible with 
the proposals in Syd's edw90 table -- indeed, it is based on same.

We really have to get this long overdue and not very difficult exercise 
out of the way before moving on to the class system, which is a much 
more challenging prospect....
