RE: SUO: RE: Copyright issues




Chris,
   Thanks for explaining.  I guess I had lost track of the context of your 
statements.  To summarize, I believe that the bulk of discussion on the SUO 
list should be change proposals on the two starter documents (as well as 
any future starter documents).  That would consist of new text or KIF 
statements, or changes to existing content.  Some more general discussion 
of things like methodology is certainly appropriate, but the balance of 
messages currently is grossly weighted to topics that are quite distant 
from any particular, concrete change or addition to a starter document, 
which I feel is the wrong balance.
