Each Output variable record corresponds to a MIP table variable specification. In a change from the August draft, this record does not contain the 'priority' attribute: the priority is now set in the 'Request Variable' record. The other change is that a collection of attributes specifying dimensions etc have been moved into the 'structure' record, and each CMOR Variable record links to one structure record. This will fa-cilitate provision of clear and consistent definitions of output formats.
