Hi, I'm writing some tools that manipulate IAFA style templates and I'd just like to clarify something. The current IAFA Internet Draft doesn't really make clear (to me at least :-) ) whether all the clusters are also all variants. That is to say if I have a blank template definition that includes the attribute name ``Author-(USER*):'', I'm assuming that the ``*'' means this cluster can be repeated multiple times. Can I ever find I've got the situation of having ``Author-(USER)'' in a template definition where the cluster can only appear once?
