That is because I, other than you, personally like the wiki better than the list. I have been talking with several people about it and they recommended to put the topic back on the list. Maybe late, but hopefully not too late. > > IMHO this is a new dimension of vandalism. > > The acronym "IMHO" is not well placed if you throw around such > accusations. What you're saying here is not a "humble" opinion. I wanted to say that this is my opinion. Sorry if the abbreviation was not chosen to your satisfaction.

I counted 4 pro "votes" on the talk list - I do not consider this to be commen consensus. As Dieterdreist wrote himself, he considers his changes as a proposal. All I demand is that it is treated as one, and people who only read rfc threads in this mailing list because of a lack of time have the chance to take notice. Dieter and any other supporter of the concept is free to start a proposal to change the most important tag of all. But please stay in the common conventions for such an important change and give *all* users the chance to vote, and do not make changes on the wiki because of an agreement of few persons on the mailing list(s).
