that crap
because they are enforced, I think is very positive that when we
create
something, if it is pretty useful we have the power to enforce is

IT IS
GOOD FOR EVERYONE, only look at what happened with the PNG, is now
wide
accepted over GIF.
PNG did not succeed by being enforced: it never was enforced. It
succeeded purely on its technical merits.
