[BLDG-SIM] DOE 2.1E validation

[Aulbach, John]

Neither does the California Energy Commission say that for THEIR energy "air
shows". But yet Title 24 was BUILT on DOE-2. The "approved" commercial Title
24 compliance software program has a DOE-2 engine. But I don't believe there
is anything explicitly state within the CEC literature.

The ASHRAE Fundamentals books always speaks to programs within the text. But
I do not believe ASHRAE can actually indorse a particular product. They have
to allow "Captain's discretion".

Can anyone help me in providing any information regarding ASHRAE approving
DOE 2.1 as an energy simulation tool?
I know this might sound strange, even many years after the predictor
shootout and knowing that 90.1 uses DOE 2 for most of the energy simulation,
but is it written in blood anywhere.
