Umm...but most businesses (and the government even) restrict *WHERE* you can smoke (because smoking is also harmful to others, just as open relays are). So if you're going to use smoking as an analogy, then MAPS is my right to a "smoke-free zone". -- Mike Jones mike () biggorilla com * Mitch Halmu (mitch () netside net) [05/28/01 02:19]:
Derek, there is a subtle difference between the words you SHOULD and you MUST. The RFC you quoted is a "Best Current Practices" document. You know, like "The Surgeon General had determined that [insert your favorite vice here] is bad for your health". i.e, he can't order you MUST stop smoking, maybe you SHOULD consider it because yadayada.
