NO PNG Registration 2017-0125 ftp://ftp.simplesystems.org/pub/png-group/documents png-registration-2017-0125.txt Greg Roelofs <[email protected]> So voted primarily because of the two-line URL, which is utterly stupid and annoying in this day and age (and arguably was 20 years ago, though maybe there was a valid reason back then that I no longer recall). I will happily change my vote if it gets fixed in a subsequent proposal. I was sorely tempted to vote NO solely on the basis of the CFV's invalid restriction on the subject line (which was never accepted by consensus and therefore is not in effect unless and until this proposal passes). But since I do see the value in it--however tricky it is for Gmail users and others-- I've conformed to the request and would not reject the proposal because of the new restriction. Willem and Rei are correct that there is an excessive love of nitpicking and insufficient love of pragmatism in the group; I'm trying to curb my own tendencies along those lines... :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot
