That's pretty rich.

You enforce people to adopt standards that are part of proposed RFC's, not
official by any standard, jump through 18 other hoops, and still won't
delist them because some bit in their named replies is the wrong number of
electronvolts on your wire, and then claim you dont know an RFC?

p.k.b.

/kc

What's the current RFC/BCP and STDs count?  I'm sure you remember at
least 95% of them by heart and can recite them word for word, just like
me..!

Whilst you have a reasonable point, and there are a fair number of them to keep track of, you are providing a service based around a subset of them. Would you not agree that it would be reasonable to assume that you (or your product designers) would know and understand all the standards appropriate to your product, and are ensuring your own compliance?
