Right. My take, however, is that they are not technical issues and are therefore not suited for the technical committee; since the body with authority over this interpretation already made a decision, the only way to overrule would seem to be a GR. No, I'm not willing to propose such a GR, because I do not think that overruling this decision is required. -- Fun will now commence -- Seven Of Nine, "Ashes to Ashes", stardate 53679.4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
