Hi,

Yes, while the technical and policy rules forbid mixing scripts except in some special  cases within a single label (demarcated by the dots) mixing scripts at different levels is ok as long as these are also not mixed labels (caveats for special exceptions) - though there are some who would try to limit that, i do not see how they could be successful as that cat is well out of the bag already
