No, it does not define anything. It is up to you to decide:

- If the proposal should go any further.
- If you want the "formula" expression to be a valid Python or a valid 
muParser expression.

The purpose of the last mail was to say that Python was designed to be 
embedded into C or C++, so the effort to add that functionality to 
existing programs might not be high.

Form the pure NeXus/NIAC point of view, only the definition of what is a 
valid expression is required because nobody is going to implement the 
interpretation of the formula on the NeXus API.
