---------------------------------------

Hi Owen, 

- Thanks for the help/great comments. 

-  I am trying to convince Hong to have vint stuff decoupled to a
sepearate JIRA and make it easier for TFile to get through. We can push
for it a bit more inside this JIRA, later we could give some grounds or
make bargaining chip out of it.

- Any action item for "# number of columns included in header"?

  We don't have such a thing now ;)

  Meta Blocks which contain Metadata show up later in the file. Header
is just a Magic Number ...

Thanks
Amir
