Hi everyone,

Just for confirm: as well the examples below (thanks Lars), is the
constraint "4.1.2.U4.c" of TMCL requirements valid?

U4. Valid topic type
--------------------
(c). Topic T can be used for typing subject indicator.
Example: Topic locator can only be used for typing subject indicator and
must not occur anywhere else.

Thanks in advance,
