If the CLL clearly states "shape X is experimental only", I don't think the BPFK should make such experimental shapes official, since noone yet but the petitioner has used those experimental shapes extensively (let's be blunt here): the time for experimentality is not yet passed. But like I say, we'll consider anything --- and reject most things, if I have anything to do with it. This is a fundamentalist endeavour. And we'll see what the voting body ends up looking like. -- **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** * Dr Nick Nicholas, French & Italian Studies nickn@unimelb.edu.au * University of Melbourne, Australia http://www.opoudjis.net * "Eschewing obfuscatory verbosity of locutional rendering, the * circumscriptional appelations are excised." --- W.
