No: blends-data is data for blends to use (not data that uses blends). It's a directional relationship: blends need its data - blends data does not "need" blends, ever - not always (depends) and not mostly (recommends) but also not occationally (suggests). Instead, blends data is _consumed_ by blends, i.e. gets processed by blends. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
