Do we need to have a solution everyone agrees will solve the problem before we can get permission to ask the question in a structured forum? It's my understanding that the task force would have the responsibility to propose a solution that it believes adequately addresses the problem. The fact that there is major disagreement on a proposed solution seems to me to be a strong argument for establishing the task force. -Clarke On 4/12/12 12:38 PM, "Ian Hickson" <ian@hixie.ch> wrote: >On Thu, 12 Apr 2012, John Foliot wrote: >> Robert O'Callahan wrote: >> >> > since that I assume any CDM so documented would fail the Hollywood >> > placebo test. >> >> I appreciate that there are philosophical differences around this >>issue, >> but I would hope that philosophy be discussed in another forum, and >>that >> we focus on technical discussions.
