As noted earlier, I will be putting together a demonstration using these tags together for Madrid in one consolidated DDLm-based imgcif dictionary to support both DDL2 and DDlm validation, and, hopefully, a new DDL1 imgCIF version as well. It will be interesting to see how well or badly it turns out, especially because it will also include a DDLm conversion of the portions of the mmCIF dictionary needed by imgCIF done in the same way. The advantage of a COMCIFs acceptance of these proposed tags at this time is that we would avoid the nuisance of first working with them with the BpluS prefix and then having to take the prefix out later. But if PDB users have been able to deal with the PDBx prefixed tags for all these years, I suppose imgCIF users should be able to cope with some more prefixed tags for a while.
