Hi folks,
Can we take a break from the flame war long enough to discuss this?
I did not observe anyone replying to my comments by stating a belief
that the policy language above is clear and concise. Notwithstanding
the differing views on whether the proposed policy is good, is there
is general agreement that the policy language is rather enigmatic?
