Dave & All,
   Well I have to say there was a lot of interesting
discussion concerning multi-site w/multi flow.  I fully
appreciate the concerns of getting caught in a bear trap
early on with tackling this.  I have a proposal for the
1450.4 group which is open for consideration. The 1450.4 
group table the issue of multi-site.  At the same time 
Motorola and Inovys will work as a sub group working on a 
proposed multi site solution.  This sub group will be open 
to all interested 1450.4 members and we will welcome input.  
The idea is not to bog down the 1450.4 group on this issue 
but to come up with a proposed working solution which may or 
may not be voted as part of the 1450.4 standards.  We at
Motorola have to do this anyway due to our evaluation of
the Inovys STIL based tester with multi site.  We will also
have to come up with a solution of how to handle on-board
(loadboard) circuits which have to be pulled in via utility
relays.  In other words having one circuit which is shared
serial among the multi-DUTs.
Regards,
   
Tom.
