    Hello,
    I think the answer to this is that the detector people
    concerned (ie ZDC and BB) should generate a BrVertex
    which regardless of how they do their work internally
    will give an \"accurate\" value of Z.  The actual details
    should be hidden and someone who is not a ZDC\'er or a
    BB\'er should not have to know that except for his
    cultural enrichment.  The important point is the
    position of the vertex.
     
    Having said all this, I would agree that a convention is
    needed.
