Your question sounds specific to GMF, so I've replied to include the GMF
newsgroup in the "to" list of the reply. This should bring the question
to the attention of the correct people and a subsequent reply should
appear on both newsgroups. Please direct future GMF-specific questions
directly to the GMF newsgroup.
