standards are written by internationally recognized independent organisations, v.s. everyone can write a recommendation. For you, and others this doesn't matter, for others it does. Why do you think Microsoft made part of .NET a standard? They could perfectly write up recommendations on .NET themselves, written drafts, or RFCs and leave it at that. -- John Small Perl scripts: http://johnbokma.com/perl/ Perl programmer available: http://castleamber.com/ I ploink googlegroups.com :-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
