If we can get agreement to provide an interface roughly similar to what Ian proposed, then I'm sure there's room to negotiate the details. I'm really interested in hearing whether this general approach is acceptable, before we deep-dive on specific details. What's your position? Right now, I don't know what you think of any of this other than that you question some of the proposed outputs of the "parsing an address" algorithm. Regards, Maciej
