Does everybody receive the D-Paks that they use with a consistant
orientation?  I have found that some vendors orientate the part in tape and
reel with one orientation and others with a different orientation.  EIA-481
does not specify the orientation of this unusual package.  Please include
vendor names when responding so that I can see what vendors are packaging in
which orientation.  I'd like to see the orientation defined so that the  2
leads were parallel with the tape edge, however some major suppliers are
already orientating with the 2 leads towards (perpendicular) the tape edge.
