i will support a "no html" policy here...

...if we enforce it on the library as well!

whaddya say, guys?  can we work a deal?

you don't really wanna be hypocrites, do you?

uh, no, carlo, that's massively dishonest, and you know it.

first of all, michael only insisted the text-file be present.
he _never_ disallowed some other format, provided that
the advocate did all the work of supporting that format...
heck, michael even offered disk-space for other formats!
the correct perspective is he supported format diversity...

and me?  i have shown all of you, repeatedly, exactly how
you can use the text-file to generate many other formats.
i've also released cost-free tools that do such conversions.
i believe that shows that i believe in format-diversity too...

so the spin you attempted here was quite clumsy as well...
