<personally> i find "prohibited" to be unnecessarily strong. <sc hat on> looks pretty much as expected from meeting and discussion between sc and mlc. though i knwo it's a pita, it's great to see mlc getting act together on the administrivia. surprised you posted it to futures as opposed to the mlc chair doing so. randy
