After an email exchange with Mark, I have made a major change in the 
draft concordance
at:

https://sites.google.com/site/nexuscbf/mapping-draft/Concordance_Summary_1May13.pdf

Section 6, on the Dectris application definition now uses the 
DECTRIS_prefix, rather
than the NX prefix for classes and fields that have not been accepted by 
NIAC.
I have also started making changes in the earlier sections to redo 
classes and fields
created for the CBF mapping into NeXus to use a CBF_ prefix for items from
CBF that have not been accepted by NIAC.  I have not yet completed those 
CBF_ changes
because I am dealing with a family medical emergency, but the remaining 
parts are
purely a clerical matter of putting "CBF_" in front of the relevant 
items, most of
which already have those obvious long names prefixed with CBF category 
names.
The CBF_ prefix will just make their status more transparent.    I'll 
try to finish
those changes tomorrow if I can get a good internet connection in the 
hospital
waiting room.  Otherwise those remaining changes will have to wait until 
Friday.

So, please take a look at pages 101 -- 119 and let me know what you think.

Regards,
   Herbert

P.S.  I am not giving up on trying to convince NIAC to adopt a more open 
and welcoming
approach to this additional metadata, but right now it is more important 
to get
coding done than it is to settle that question, and having coding done 
based in
this specification will give us something more concrete and specific to 
discuss
in figuring out what is best to do with this metadata.
