Pekka,

Have you read both specs?  Both Ralph and I have told you it's a total
proper subset.  We are the TECHNICAL experts and both are working
implementations hands on of both specs, the AD has stated a good opinion
too.  You now are using up our time with your opinion and have been told
by many now its not a problem.  Your using up precious mail time here on
this list and would you now please clarify when your speaking as Chair
and when as "individual" so we can get an idea what portion of your mail
is breaking the defacto rule of 15 mail messages a week.  You have lost
this debate please accept it and move on I am sure John can get text
from all said can we please move on to next topic.

Thanks
/jim
