Hi Steve,

Can you describe what types of messages you'd expect to be in each
range?  I'm unclear on what's an LSPP event and when a trusted program
would be expected to use the LSPP range vs. the 1100-1199 "user space
trusted application messages", especially if the trusted program is
part of the CAPP ST, the LSPP ST and also generally interesting.
I'm also not unclear on what the anomoly related records would be.

Thanks,
