Well, I don't disagree with even that per se, but I want to illustrate a slightly different conclusion from our shared starting point. Two people in conflict won't necessarily recount the basis of their conflict because why would they need to? The other person was there, and they "know what they did"! Add a third party (say, a response team of five diverse individuals), and now each side needs to enumerate what happened, what went wrong, why it's a problem. Now you have an impartial observer who can say, "Hey! You guys aren't even on the same page! Did you notice that?" That's the role of a response team, to me. Not to act as judges, but to act as mediators. -Sara -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
