Hmmm, right. Thanks for pointing that out. I'd never thought of that (that
the objective thing isn't clear to everyone I mean) - you know, if you
participate in the discussions, code on some pf the PPlay parts etc you
"instinctively" know what's up. It's not written down anywhere, it's
changing with time, but you know it and thus don't see the confusion of
others until someone really says it directly.

I'll write that down.
