Hello,

I must say that I strongly agree with most of Jeff's arguments. (Maybe 
not so much the 'unsigned' story, but practically everything else).

I am astonished that we have this kind of discussion again. I may be 
mistaken but I had the impression that it was agreed upon to use DA for 
IOC internal acess to records and to abandon the efforts Marty started 
to define internal implementation of epics types until we have got the 
interfaces right. And that dbd definitions should be compiled into 
C/C++ code implementing DA interfaces, views, etc.pp.

If indeed DA does not suffice as a (the) generic interface to record 
fields, as Andrew suggested, then maybe DA should be extended or 
revised accordingly?

Ben
