We are *not* comparing worms and apples here. By "resolving ambiguities" of two different implementations of a feature I mean deciding which of them is compliant and which not (wasn't this clear?). Even if in a particular case the answer is that both implementations are not compliant, the base for giving such an answer still will be the spec that the implementations implement. -- Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev --------------------------------------- Truly great madness cannot be achieved without significant intelligence. --------------------------------------- To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk ------------------------------------- Never fight an inanimate object ------------------------------------- You've achieved success in your field when you don't know whether what you're doing is work or play > > Liam > > -- > Liam Quin, W3C XML Activity Lead, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ > http://www.holoweb.net/~liam/ * http://www.fromoldbooks.org/ > > -- Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev --------------------------------------- Truly great madness cannot be achieved without significant intelligence. --------------------------------------- To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk ------------------------------------- Never fight an inanimate object ------------------------------------- You've achieved success in your field when you don't know whether what you're doing is work or play
