Clarification request(s) and response
Kcda: 7:45pm Jul 22, 2007: Tricky one! Because of lacking context. An ausschreibung is a tender/proposal/submission usually. Tender is out of question. Proposal and submission might be workable but more context is necessary.They could simply mean "current submission possibilities"?
Jonathan MacKerron: 7:47pm Jul 22, 2007: indeed I'm asking the question because it is a tricky one...

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree Kcda: In the context it is correct . I do not leave much chance for it being part of a tender in this case. I guess it is a list of things under the heading where submissions of proposals are sought.
