Sure, I agree. But that does not mean that: 1) there is such a thing as "specification/documentation" and it is not always the code itself (otherwise you would not be able to even have a statement of 'code <-> spec' differences). 2) having a difference between the "code <-> standard" does not imply an abandonment of further attempts towards a greater alignment with the aforementioned standard. In fact, I think all would agree on that (and this is why I was trying to reiterate that we are speaking of pretty much the same stuff, only differing in terms). leon.
