I agree completely. I see this with CLDR as well; there is a more or less implicit assumption that I will be using ICU to implement whatever is being described. I don't care how robust and well-tested a wheel is; as a developer, I should be able to use the specification to reinvent it if I like. -- Doug Ewell | Thornton, CO, USA http://ewellic.org | @DougEwell _______________________________________________ Unicode mailing list [email protected] http://unicode.org/mailman/listinfo/unicode
