I think we're all guessing. I know that while Edapta has done work in "breadth", I'm not comfortable enough to say that we've hit the full range of abilities yet that I would feel safe in not having a 'universal' site. But your point is well taken. And I think this is why we want to be sure to make this a _techniques_ issue not a _guidelines_ issue. Guidelines express a need that must be met, techniques provide a possible way to do it. A "universal" site is one technique, but selecting the closest fit is another technique. --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@idyllmtn.com> http://www.kynn.com/
