M6.8 Sumatra is thrust

Quake magnitude revised to 6.8, and the focal mechanism is available: both solutions show thrust, with one of the 2 nodal planes being gently ENE-dipping, so consistent with the subduction zone. Even if the ENE plane is the correct one, it could be on a fault above the plate boundary (although simplest interpretation would be that it is on same fault as 8.4?).
