Not publishing it is tantamount to saying "I OBJECT TO PROGRESS!". If you are correct, more people will see it and the proposal will be shot down. Otherwise, other opinions will flourish that may sway your position (or a new perspective will emerge all together). In any case, calling for a spec not to be published, no matter how bad it is, is not the right way to do this. Publishing a spec is just a formality which can lead to discussion. -- Marcos Caceres http://datadriven.com.au
