Hmm. We may have different ideas of what is a high level of burden. I like the fact that for government agencies my society doesn't count the cost, only allowing the exception in the private sector, because business must be profitable as well as socially responsible. But that's the point - this must be made as a social decision and not a technical one, and so deosn' belong in the technical guidelines but in the policy framework where they are applied. cheers Chaals On Wed, 11 Dec 2002, john_slatin wrote: > >I agree with Charles.
