You can see it, but you should know that many people (including me) consider
this guy to be wrong. He's forgetting all the reasons why Reply-To: is good,
all the reasons why not adding a Reply-To: is bad, he's (in my opinion)
exaggerating its slightly bad features. He's also shamelessly writing about
bad things about the missing Reply-To: as if they are good things.

I think that one day I should write a rebuttal article titled "Reply-To
Munging Considered the best invention since sliced bread" ;)

Yes, it was a close vote but we (the pro-Reply-To: camp) lost :(

Maybe we should, like in any real democracy, repeat the elections every
(say) year? It could be a fun linux-il virtual event :) With campains,
debates, votes, and even exit polls...
