Hi,

        Just a couple of comments or questions:

For the CODA banks is there any need for special pause / resume events to
identify transitions from one spin state to another for either the beam or
target or is this handled by the general pause / resume events and then
does user has to determine the spin states or transitions from reading the
EPIC banks?

In the physics events there should be something to handle data without
track information (eg neutrons). Perhaps there are TOF, Cherenkov, Lead
glass, neutron banks as well but are not mentioned. I suspect we need this
information to be present as well. For TOF maybe something like Energy,
Time, x-position on TOF, y-position on TOF, and a pointer to track (if
existing) for TOF events above some threshold. Similar for C, PbSiO, n, etc.

Anyway, talk about it tomorrow I suspect.
