The compact tame tangle approximation conjecture

A compact framed transversal mm-tangle is an embedded mm-manifold in the closed cube \bIn\bI^n satisfying compact framed transversality. A compact tame mm-tangle is a compact framed transversal tangle that is tame.

Tame tangles approximate transversal tangles. Any compact framed transversal mm-tangle can be approximated by compact tame mm-tangles.

This is presented as the tangle analogue of the compact manifold-diagram approximation conjecture; the source does not state a resolution.
