to raise another DRS issue – but following the last telco I’ve been
looking at the experiment setup in more detail in order to write some code
which will identify the “requested” data. Charlotte has also shared
with me some METAFOR discussions which, I think, concluded that a coupled model
which is run in atmosphere only mode will do so under the same name. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

We probably shouldn't spend any more time on this. Either proposed
solution seems to solve the probelm, so maybe we go with "group
think", unless someone can point out some practical implication that that
choice will make more work for someone (especially the users of the archive).<br>

<br>
Hi Stephen, <br>
<br>
Can you please make the second to last token, namely:
<variable>_<table>, be like the other tokens in the taxonomy.
Specifically make it <variable>/<table>. When parsing this,
it makes it a bit difficult to look for this new delimiter. It
complicates things a bit. Does it also mean that "_" are not
allowed as a character in any of the other bits of the taxonomy. The
regex becomes a real pain and "regular" parsing is even worse.
It would make everything quite a bit simpler if it was like the others. i.e.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=black face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Furthermore, is this structure saying that we are
always going to be using "cmip5" as the root of this taxonomy?<br>
<br>
Please let me know your thoughts. If you can accommodate this it would be
great!<br>
