Again, we are talking about the requirements to Core. What is "asserted" and what is "external schema" in this context? > There is one thing that is not clear to me: does Core want (need, require) # or ## facts? > > Sometimes, you sound like it is a demand from PRD, whereas I was under the impresion that it was a demand from Core...

If I even mentioned PRD in the last 2-3 months then only in passing. > And, btw, does Core want them in rule heads? > > (Sorry, I am much father back on Core than I should :-( So, this is the problem. The discussion is about Core, while you keep talking about PRD, and this just brings a lot of confusion rather than helping with moving the Core work towards completion. michael
