for the record, i did not intend to disagree with your statement. i did want to make it clear that i, and several people i've worked with on plan 9 have made a concerted effort to be as compliant with the standard as reasonable; i was making a related by separate point. etc. sorry if you took it this way. sorry for using your statement as a foil. please accept my apology. - erik
