meta info in EU: was what standards...

Thanks for your reply, Jeffrey.  I now know what you're saying.

What you are saying is an "extention" of EU, kind of like meta tags in
HTML.  Again, I was just confused, and re-itterate that the standards are
the specs (language definition) which RDS sets, with our input, of course!

I think that there must be at least a prototype of an update software.
Right now there's no EU prog that can really do Internet/web operations, as
I understand it.  What I suggest is that library routine authors can maybe
define a global constant and then users of that routine can do a
type-check, aborting if necessary.  Good idea.

There is no such thing like this in other languages, including HTML, that
"mandates" recording of author/date info.  Everything in HTML <meta> is
non-standard, there is no standard, by W3C's admission, in HTML 4.0, of
what goes into a meta tag.  So I think this may be voluntary?

Alan
