I totally agree with you, AB +++ As an operator, I purchase equipment and need to write RFQs. I would like to able to ask more than "does the product implement RFC <whatever>", I want to also ask "Please document all instances where you did not follow all MUST and SHOULD, and why". Otherwise I think there needs to be better definition of what it means to "implement" or "support" an RFC when it comes to completness and what this means as per following SHOULD and MAY. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike at swm.pp.se
