Scoring: MP

2C*-(2S)-?-(3S)
3D-(4S)-??

Your parnter opens 2C multi. This is either 6-card ♦ and weak (5 to 10pts. Does not really need good ♦'s) or anything strong.
? : You can bid 3H forcing to show good 5-card H and intersted in game against a good weak 2♦
Or you can bid 2NT. Your parnter will then bid 3D with really weak hand and 3C when he is a bit stronger (8-10) when he gets the chanche
?? : 5D to stop or 4NT RKC (and hope that partner does not have S Ace)?
======
Our bidding was:
2C*-(2S)-2NT-(3S)
3D-(4S)-4NT-(DBL)
5D-(DBL) all pass
(parnter forgot about ROPI)
...but the following looks better?:
2C*-(2S)-3H-(3S)
3D-(4S)-5D-(DBL) all pass
OR
2C*-(2S)-3H-(3S)
4H-(4S)-5H-(DBL) all pass

And so should you.

While DOPI is a great convention (it provides a solution when you have a genuine problem) ROPI is hopeless. It provides a solution where there is no problem. At best it doesn't lead to confusion and you get the same result that you already had.

Jan Jansma invented a "conventional double" of a 4NT ace asking bid. It is called JAT (which is Dutch for "swipe" as in slang for "steal"). What is the meaning of this double? It doesn't mean anything.

Oh, by the way, the acronym stands for "Jansma Agreement Test".
