Well, there's a distinction between what we ship as a default and what we configure our installation on v.w3.org to do. The default as shipped should be zero because we want to err on the side of caution, but v.w3.org should be able to check itself and qa-dev should probably allow infinite recursion. - -- "Fly it until the last piece stops moving..." -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP SDK 3.2.2 iQA/AwUBQgU9daPyPrIkdfXsEQIXkQCeMi+bpfmuZGR6Kg/e5+12n4B8r/sAn3tm NAOOvP/5O3BFimBAbukm8isT =qXn5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
