Yes, but I don't think that this is any different in Abfab from the multiple AA case with contemporary technologies; and today this is generally considered a deployment issue. So I think we can choose to either apply the same deployment strategies used today, or define a standard way of doing it. I'm personally fairly agnostic about this, although I get a sense from the list and private communications that there is interest in defining a standard approach for this. Josh.
