Hi all, I think that basically we all agree in principle. However, to take a couple of points:
[1] Patrick's : >It's a bit like plastering a nice > big sticker on a new building saying "built with bob's special concrete > mix". As long as the site (or building) performs as it should, customers > do not need to know this sort of stuff...they couldn't care less. Is that true? I would have thought that any responsible client of the builder would like to know that building regs were adhered to. (i.e., 'standards' are our 'building regulations' :-) Surely? > Compliance does not necessarily equate high standard. Absolutely! > Who would be the awarding body? Who would monitor continuous compliance? Yep! There's the rub! [2] Kim: > Maybe the "stickers" wont > mean anything to all people but lets hope they'll ask what it is. That > way the "stickers" could turn into a kind off "quality stamp" in the > long run. My (new) feelings exactly. [3] Kornel: > I like that idea... So who (which one of us) is going to do it then? :-) [4] Mike: A nice summary, thank you.
