When people like me volunteered to summarize information on the web (ML
archive included), we have limited resource to verify its "currentness"
and consent to use as a quotation.
Best practice is to ask original poster its quoted content, which I
admit I have not yet done in some case. Call me lazy but ...
Anyway, it was interesting. this was not "my document" but quite
thought provoking for me :) I would be concered as you are, if I am in
your shoes.
