Re: Appologies

Thanks Rick,

I too should apologise.  Earlier this week I spent several hours trying to
work out what the API did, unsuccessfully.  So my comments were grounded in
that perspective, which I maintain is still a long way from acceptable as a
specification or as an artifact that can be used to capture consensus.
Still, I have been convinced by you (and others) that FPWD is necessary.

FWIW, I really appreciate the work that has been done to improve the
documentation of privacy issues, especially by Johann.  We might not have
made a whole lot of resolutions in the past little while, but the quality
of the documentation of those issues is vastly better.
