OK, we discussed this a bit ... we can clearly do it, but it's likely to make queries significantly more complicated. The suggestion was to come up with an explicit proposal to see what the impact would be. However, I think there's also a question of how common this use case would really be; we've been constantly told that spaces are orthogonal to paths (re-iterated in your MOU addendum proposal!) and yet you're now suggesting we need multiple defined paths within spaces. Does this just mean that something is wrong in the way the SRM is being used? After all, fundamentally SURLs have no real significance, it's the LFN/GUID in the catalogue which really identifies the file. Stephen
