To me, the reference is just saying there’s a reference from one thing to another thing, and it’s just that in the case that it’s ‘this stanza’ that’s doing the referencing it’s implicit. Possibly if I was to present it that way, it would seem like less of a radical change? /K _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
