That's a good point; you're right, things lingering in experimental is the only reason duplicates in experimental are bad. This is the more fundamental issue to some of the things I mentioned. Although I'd also note that draft XEPs are okay to implement widely and are not "low rank". This is a separate problem though; the fact that its named "draft" makes everyone think that, including some council members and people involved in the process (I still have the "I shouldn't implement that in prod, it's just a draft" as a gut reaction after all this time). —Sam _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: [email protected] _______________________________________________
