Architectural Concepts 
       This section has been completely rewritten. 

Architectural Constructs 
       An alternative syntax for expressing compositions of units is
       proposed.  

       References to architectural specifications from ordinary
       specifications are proposed, also with generic parameters.

Subject: Re: The name of the language

Dear all,
when I recently talked about the name of the language to someone who is
aware of what we are doing but not particpating, he said: "I thought it was
called CoFI. What's wrong with that?" Indeed? [Note: the name has already
been checked]
regards Bernd

[It should preferably mention "Algebraic" and "Specification"
somewhere...   Or are you proposing to refer to the language as 
"The CoFI (Alg Spec) Language"?  --PDM]
