				As we discussed, the user shall be able to concatenate also partially initialized values and templates.<br />
<br />
I don't understand the matching mechanism item either. It is already defined that when a template is USED, i.e. in a sending or receiving operation, it shall be completely initialized. This, of course, also applies e.g. to the values that are members of value lists, complemented value lists etc. But why to forbid defining e.g. a var template, which has a formal parameter or a component variable in its value list? both are unidefined at the point of DEFINING the template but your restrictions could be taken as they are disallowed.<br />
<br />
As there is an agreement regarding the match operation, I left only this in the file CR5942_resolution_v2.doc. If you still think that something should be added for the matching mechanisms, pls. submit a new CR.			</td>
