All

DFDL V1 draft 038 is available at http://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc15851?nav=1

There are many changes as a result of the review of draft 037. Documents responding to the comments are attached. Some issues are still being resolved.
There have been significant changes to the Length section that should be thoroughly reviewed.

This draft should be the last one before the draft we submit to OGF. I do not think that it is ready for submission.
