The article is concerned with the problem of projective description of weighted inductive limits of spaces of continuous functions. It was stated by \textit{K.-D. Bierstedt, R. Meise} and \textit{W. H. Summers} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 272, 107-160 (1982)] as follows: Let E be a locally convex space, let V be a decreasing sequence of strictly positive weights on a Hausdorff completely regular topological space X and let \(\bar V\) be the maximal Nachbin family associated to V. Determine when (a) \(V_ 0C(X,E)=C\bar V_ 0(X,E)\) and (b) \(VC(X,E)=C\bar V(X,E)\) hold algebraically and topologically. Some open questions are treated. Concerning (b), it is proved that \(C\bar V(X,E)\) is a (DF)-space for every normed space E if X is normal or if every element of V is continuous and \(\bar V\) has a cofinal family of continuous weights, a known result if X is discrete. As regards to (a), it was known that if E is normed, then (W): ``\(V_ 0C(X,E)\) is a topological subspace of \(C\bar V_ 0(X,E)\) for every sequence V of continuous weights on every locally compact space X''. It is proved that a reflexive Fréchet space satisfies (W) if and only if it is a quojection in the sense of Bellenot and Dubinsky. The class of locally convex spaces satisfying (W) is studied. In particular, the space of distributions \({\mathcal D}'(\Omega)\) has (W).
