These issues are important enough to debate right now. Nobody says "Stop all efforts and do not continue work on the LSB until $myRequirement is in!!" -- but nonetheless, issues that are _currently_ not addressed by the LSB and that some people feel that _should- be addressed still need to be discussed for possible future modifications of the LSB. The only thing I object to is the one argument that keeps coming up: The LSB does not do it (right now), so we should not want to do it (in the future). That's no good. -Jan -- Jan Schaumann http://www.netmeister.org
