True enough. You have really not been as radical as I have
made you out to be. However, I think, the point is that it could well
be some one else in the future who is not quite as reasonable as you
have been.
We do need a statement saying that the project has indeed
adopted this policy document, and the ``policy'' nomenclature
is not a ``mistake''.
