Indeed. What I think Cristoph meant in his first message, but not everybody got, was that rather than proposing definitions and colours, we should revisit [1]. In his second message, Christoph pointed out that this work is directly dependent on other issues that need to be addressed. So I'm not quite sure what is being discussed right now. I'm sure that some of this time could be used to help get these preconditions in place. (No, not me, I'm just trying to save bandwidth.)
