Hello Ken,
[KH>> "The GEM-List Standard was approved by a group of XXX developers, on
[KH>> XX/XX/XX. It embodies the..." [provide some interesting trivia about
[KH>> the GEM-List here).
[KH>
[KH>Why describe when it was created? Just explain what the standards are, and
[KH>which level your program complies to? Why not make things *SIMPLE*? This
[KH>was the way that things were MEANT to be, right?
Background information is nice; having a short note about when it was
ratified and how many people were on the list to help create it would
give the user a sense of validity to the proposal. It is much more
credible to say "100 developers support this" than "I support this"... :)
