Thanks to Radek Biernacki for spotting this: AMI_Version is defined as Type
String, but we require that it accept values of "5.1" or greater.  "Greater"
is meaningless if this is a string, so this is unenforceable.

 

I would recommend changing this to Float, assuming that we will not be
defining sub-decimal version numbers (5.1.2, for example).

 

Comments?  Objections?  This will be raised at tomorrow's Open Forum
teleconference.
