no, please dont "make a reference to rfcs". Our standards should be self-contained. Please take the appropriate section, write it in normal-people language as much as possible, and put it on our own pages. in the interests of time, here is a concrete example for you: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Usage of standard words in our standards documents: "Must" - means every package is required to be this way "Should" - means that under normal circumstances, packages are expected to be this way, with occassional exceptions with justifications allowed "May" - draws attention to an optional feature, which, even though it is not common, is explicitly allowed ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- PS: RFC2119 uses A LOT of CAPITALS. For EMPHASIS. I thought you said that using CAPITALS, was RUDE? :-D _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
