Hi.

Please Flames-to: olivier.berger at it-sudparis.eu

[Feel free to ignore this arrogant and pedantic message, but I felt it
was time someone voiced this... other than that, I appreciate the
openness and achievements of OSLC.]

Sorry to be pendantic, but could all participants try and learn how to
quote and use mailing-lists to avoir difficult to read messages ?

Please do read the netiquette (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netiquette).

My suggestion :

- avoid HTML (unless necessary)
- avoid responding with big paragraphs without line breaks
- avoir responding to digest messages
- avoir quoting tons of lines to add a few at the end
etc.

APIs, standards, etc. are great, but if you want cooperation, you have
to learn how to participate in online communities to improve
participants experience.

Sorry about being pedantic, but it's painful to try and follow the
ongoing discussion, me thinks.

Best regards anyway,

[SNIP]
