This will all change when we move to the "reference policy". Until that time I don't want to make any significant changes as it would be a waste of effort. The current policy is in maintenance mode. Once I get the current significant bugs solved I will cease working on it and start working on the reference policy. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
