Dear all,

Now that the SimDM PR has to be updated following TCG Chair & Vice 
Chair's comments, I (as Application WG Vice Chair) would like to raise 
again a couple of issues:

+ Implementation examples must be included. It is not so difficult to 
include a couple of them (one for macro and one for micro-simulations) 
in the main document. Look at the ONLY comment from the rest of WGs:

 >Main difficulty found with the model is generic => very complex to 
understand. Could you please >provide s simple example in the use of 
this model,

The model without examples is, in straightforward terms, 
incomprehensible even for the VO community. Who, outside it, is going to 
implement it? This is not the right way to encourage data centres to 
publish their datasets using VO standards.

+ The historical description on the work made in the Theory group has 
turnedout to be a source of conflicts. As said in previous e-mails, I 
would vote forremoving this section.

Best regards,

Enrique.
