If that is the case your plan is fine with me. Speaking for myself only, I do not think the ISSUE-194 decision will have impact on ISSUE-30. While some discussion around ISSUE-194 tried to combine the concepts of transcripts and long descriptions, all three remaining proposals treat transcripts as a separate concept. I suspect the other Chairs would agree. Regards, Maciej > > Thank you. > > Best Regards, > Laura > > -- > Laura L.
