I posted an explanation of my understanding back in January, https://groups.google.com/d/msg/asciidoc/zt5t8J8MEfk/pTvXbANsCQAJ was not even responded to with "I am busy will respond later". > > Instead, you decided to use it as an opportunity to sew doubt.

Its important to be honest and state what we believe, even if that is in significant disagreement, that may turn out to be wrong and can then be corrected by evidence or argument, or turn out to be correct and accepted (lets face it in a specification development some of it won't be "practically provable" since it won't exist yet so there is going to be some argument along the way). But disagreement has to be stated or the process won't work. Also being in different countries with different backgrounds we will use English in different ways, its important that nobody in the process applies their cultural bias to others statements, what you see as "FUD", a term which here implies malice, I see as my understanding of the situation and no indication of emotion. > >> and since there was not even a reply to my post on the topic much earlier in >> the year I can only assume nothing has changed. > > > I addressed that in my earlier reply.
