Hi,

Here are some updates on pending SCWG requests.

After feedback from Peggy and Allan, here is the updated list of event types:

- If nobody sees any problem with this list by the end of October, request #104
  will be approved and the Event.etype constraint should then be updated in NC
  and SC.

- Ellen sent a proposal on how to implement event categories. This will be
  discussed during our next conference call.


2.- Request #120 (D. Given):
============================

Nobody seems to have any objections about the new table CubeMessageText
(besides its name).

> CUBEMESSAGETEXT
>  Name                    Null?    Type
>  ----------------------- -------- ----------------
>  SRCNET                  NOT NULL VARCHAR2(2)
>  TEXTTYPE                NOT NULL VARCHAR2(40)
>  LINENO                  NOT NULL NUMBER(8)
>  TEXT                    NOT NULL VARCHAR2(132)

Allan and/or Doug, could you please come up with a more suitable
name for this table. If/when everybody agrees with the new name,
this request will be approved.


Thanks,
Stephane
