Khaled,
  The idea was to end the stupid arguments on what is proper and what is not
so that we can do as you suggest, therefore adopting those conventions that
I suggested is productive.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

This is a "can of worms" that I suggest we don't open!?
Before you know it, you'll be voting whether we should allow this and that
and etc.
Let's stay focused on XML/EDI and all related topics/technologies.
Let's not become distracted by someone's interest in jobs or stocks or
whatever.
Let's keep the momentum of exploring and sharing our experiences of XML/EDI
up to speed.
I hope this is agreeable with everybody.

KM

OK GANG; VOTE EARLY; VOTE OFTEN.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF (HEREWITH AND INFORMALLY) ADOPTING THE ABOVE
"SUBJECT:"
PREFIXES AS AN UNOFFICIAL STANDARD (LETS NOT! FORM A COMMITTEE FOR THIS
ONE"), SIGNIFY SAME BY DOING NOTHING! (JUST PERSONALLY ADOPT THE USE OF THE
STANDARD IN YOUR OWN POSTS FROM NOW ON; THEY SEEM EFFICIENT ENOUGH, LET ANY
FURTHER WORK BECOME AVAILABLE ADDITIONS BY volunteers, NOT TOPICS).

THOSE AGAINST SAY "NAY".

THE AYES HAVE IT.

BYE.

REGARDS,

JIM CUNNINGHAM
