Hi Phil,

I think Steve may be en route so I'm responding. My understanding is that DAG 4 is anticipated to be released before Brussels. We have been told that it is anticipated to be 95% of the final document which, following the public comment period that comes after it, will then morph into the final DAG.

Kind regards,

RA

Thanks for the excellent real time reports, Steve.

Do we have any idea of when DAGv4 may be released?
