Re: Decision on CfC: Publish CAPTCHA Errata Update

No problem, Kim. We always appreciate comments and try to do our best by
them.

You pointed out an error in our document which is hopefully now
resolved.


NOTE: We chose to resolve by adding the "stand-alone" qualifier because
the statement is made in the context of discussing stand alone
solutions. We realized we might have made reference to issues noted in
stand alone solutions that also appear with multi party solutions, but
we rather left that tacit.

Thank you again for taking the time to write us about our document.

Best,

Janina
