%X This paper discusses the sorts of observations of processes
that are appropriate to capture priority. The standard
denotational semantics for CSP are based around observations
of traces and refusals. Choosing to record a little more
detail allows extensions of CSP which describe some very
general processes including those that include priority. A
minimal set of observations yields a language and semantics
remarkably close to the standard Failures\-Divergences model
of CSP which is described in a companion paper. A slightly
richer set of observations yields a somewhat less abstract
language.
