So...
the RFC standards for internet communication is not good enough?
or the Debian Policy standard
or the standard of *this* mailing list:-
(eg. as used in http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2011/04/msg00141.html)
And *you* can't sort the in-place standards?
Let me guess - do you also use the imperial measurement system?
Did someone mention Cultural Imperialism earlier?
;-p
