Sedums as Habitat

I've heard recently that Sedum roofs are no longer being accepted as providing enough habitat to achieve 5.1. Is there any truth to this?

Brittany, it's my understanding that this is true,  but that it's not a new thing. We discuss this in a couple places under the Checklists tab above.Anyone else have experience trying to get sedums recognized as habitat?
