159 159  Conversion from the version 3.0 model to version 2.1 cannot be performed reliably. The process would need target information to be derived from analysis of the Metadataflows and Metadata Provision Agreements. Depending on the complexity it may not be possible to express that information in a version 2.1 Data Structure Definition.
