-Olivier Questions+  * REFERENCE: Citation  
-1) Do we really want to have line for each PDF replica? Would not be better ​to quote the theoretical uncertainty in % ? +  * FIX the meaning of DEFAULT values... 
-2) What about non LHC collision ​(fix target/ DIS/...)? This requires 2 PDF id. +  
-3) other scheme are often used like HT/2 and (CKKW ones) are not even analytic+Stefan comments
-4) What about NNLO or NNLL?  +    - PREFERRED OPTION: In order to deal with resummation I suggest to add a second digit to QCD_ORDER, i.e. 0=LO, 1=NLO, 2=NNLO, etc. 11=NLO+NLL, 21=NNLO+NLL,​ 22=NNLO+NNLL,​ etc.. Only LO+LL=00 is then not well defined. And this approach is not specific ​to what is actually resummed ​(p_T, threshold,...). TYPE of resummation as a COMMENT
-5) using some xml tag in a non xml like file is weird (or I do not understand where you plan to write such information)+    ​- ​ 
-6) Missing the information of the statistical ​uncertainty+  - OPTIONAL: For EW corrections it would be helpful to somehow encode if full factorization ​is assumed ​or not. => Implement as a comment what scheme is used to combine QCD and EW corrections.  
 +  -  
 +  - Some codes also give a scale uncertainty ​in the same run. Can this be added?
