Sure, I have access to https-capable tools. But as it happens I prefer to *use* some tools that don't have that capability. This is, or is supposed to be, an open standards body, one that is trying to encourage as many qualified people as possible to participate. It makes no sense at all to restrict access in this way. Ned
