It can be difficult to keep up with all the discussion threads, and the
problem is compounded when we generalize from the initial subject,
although, looking back, I'm not sure this thread was ever about
forecasts per se ...

I'm interested in the "multi-level approach to standard naming" but
might easily have missed this thread, since probalistic forecasts are pretty
far from my area of expertise.

Wish there was a way to sort through the material in the archives and
detect the range of subjects covered in each thread - but I don't think
even our new ticket system will do that.

Cheers - Nan
