I agree with Aaron. I don't think this is a realistic concern. Think of applying "with many eyes all bugs are shallow" to spec creation. I also immagine if two people in say kde for example disagree about a spec they will discuss it between themselves before taking a public stance on it. Even politicians understand this and they are the scum of the earth ;) Jeremy whiting > > -- > Aaron J.
