From the current work it is clear that the MLT parameter should be varied with and to keep the envelope models consistent with these low resolution 3D-models. From discussions at the workshop, encouraged by comparisons to the work of H.-G. Ludwig, B. Freytag and others (elsewhere in these proceedings), we found that there is a large difference between Gustafsson's opacities used in the simulations and Kurucz' opacities used in the envelope models, an inconsistency that is most likely to dominate the above results. The method for inferring is sound, but one should be cautious about using the 's derived above. By now, better opacities have been developed for use in both the simulations and in the envelope code, and a new set of simulations is running.
