[Vp-reproduce-subgroup] I'd linke to reemphasize that having a formal and complete conceptual model is critical for any shareable or reusable model

Thanks James,

With your permission I added this topic to the mailing list - we may want
to continue this discussion and let more people comment on this. So please
reply to all to move your responses to the mailing list.

I agree that standards may not hold for conceptual models unless you have
perfected a specific method to create those and attract more people to use
it.

However, the sad part is that the modeling community needs standards to
allow utility and integration of models and we really lack those now.
