Hi,

Thanks for the quick answer and for addressing my comments.

On respect to:

> There is no conflict, as the eCall document applies to regions that
adhere to the E.U. eCall system, and this document applies to other
regions.  I added the following sentence to the paragraphs in the Abstract
and Introduction:

   A vehicle designed for multiple regions will
   comply with the document applicable to the region in which it is
   located.

I do not believe that this is sufficiently clear. Do you mean here that
this document applies to all regions that do not implement the eCall
system? If so, please say it explicitely.

Also, what does 'comply' mean? Is this about what is implemented in the
software, or about what is activated? Without this clarification, your
usage of MANDATORY and OPTIONAL keywords is fuzzy.

Regards,

Dan
