<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">As I've mentioned earlier, I think that a proposal to use non-exact matches other than &quot;mark contained&quot; matches (&quot;dumb matches&quot;) makes sense to pursue.&nbsp; Various types of matches have been
 discussed; however, there has been no actual proposal for &quot;smarter&quot; matches that can be used by the group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">The attached proposal seek to fill that gap.&nbsp; It is more in the nature of an addendum to the initial proposal on non-exact matches.&nbsp; However, it does provide a more formal proposal on the
 types of non-exact matches to be considered.&nbsp; The intent is to provide a sufficient framework to discuss these types of non-exact matches and to add these non-exact matches to the proposal.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
