in protocols is a bad idea, in which people worry about viewing RFCs
on DSL routers but not mobile phones, in which printing HTML "just
doesn't work", in which it takes "fancy gadgets with lots of CPU
horsepower" to render HTML...

I congratulate SAP for their bold vision in extending their operations
beyond the bounds of planet Earth. -Tim
