Scott,
I did not remove Gaussian. I proposed removing Gaussian from the spec to the
IBIS ATM committee, and the committee approved without objection its
removal.

You don't have the authority to "announce" the removal of a feature that is
in a GEIA published specification. You may choose to not use it, however,
removal from an existing specification is a difficult process. This is why
the BIRD process needs to be thorough and complete.
regards,
Scott

All,
I announced removal of things like Gaussian and Table for the exact reasons
that Danil stated. I did this many many moons ago. Why did no one object at
that time? All decisions that have been made can always be reviewed, but we
also need to be practical about it.

Radek,
I believe that since ?gausian? keyword was not very clearly defined in the
specs, and no developers so far have used it in their AMI files (correct me
if I am wrong), the best solution is to remove it from the specs for now.
The simpler the spec is, the easier it is for everybody to support it.
Best,
Danil

Walter,
I do not think we can ?remove? Gaussian from the specification. It is
already there.
As a matter of fact we should try to clarify issues like this one, wherever
there is a possibility for misinterpretation.
For Fangyi?s question I think the logically correct answer should be the
second one:
(PDF 0.0 0.01)
It follows the concept of (leaf_name value) where ?value? in this case
consists of two numbers.

Fangyi,
One of the reasons why I have proposed removing Gaussian as a type in the
new BIRD.

Subject: [ibis-macro] question about Gaussian parameter
Hi, Experts;
If an AMI model has a parameter (PDF (Format Gaussian 0.0 0.01)), what
should the Init input parameter string be? Should it be
(PDF Gaussian 0.0 0.01)
or
(PDF 0.0 0.01)
or other format?
Thanks in advance,
Fangyi
