The ASN group is a bit enclosed. They ignore HLA enthusiasts like me.

The federates (players) don't have to understand all FOM parameters.
This means we can develop a proprietary FOM extension that preserves a
backward-compatibility with the native RPR/ASN federates. Of course,
this will work only until the RPR/ASN decides to extend their FOM in a
different way.
