You got me on a technicality. Final defense: It is my belief that the scope and applicability sections of the GOSIP spec are mis-stated in that they are not consistent with what I thought was going on at the meeting. Perhaps I am wrong and have misinterpreted what was agreed at the last meeting. If I am correct in this assumption, then these two sections should be fixed in the final copy. If this is done, then GOSIP is a fine thing. If, on the other had, I am wrong, and these sections are to be an accurate representation of GOSIP's intent, then I have wasted everyone's time trying to defend something which is patently wrong (as most of your arguments point out) and I'll appologize. However, since none of the people in the know have commented on our discussion, it is difficult for me to gauge how right/wrong I am. /mtr
