I tend to nitpick to the degree of silliness when my own suggestions are concerned, but "unknown" sounds to me like the state _before_ the test. If a person says he is "undecided" about something that means that he _has_ thought about it already. "Undecidable" might bring this distinction across more strongly, but it is a more complicated word and it insinuates that it is _impossible_ to come to a decision regardless of the spent effort. "unknown" clearly is much better than "dunno" though even if my own favorite would be "undecided". -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
