If we have a long enough career, we are likely all of those at some point or another. They are just roles. A cowboy here has a different connotation. It means a strong, self-sufficient, highly competent and confident member of the team who can be relied upon to get the herd to market without too much whining or too many trips to the saloon. To secure the future, the man of action and the man of law work together. If you decide to subset ASN.1, you will need a considerable amount of fortitude. You may even have to give away the credit. Be sure to keep ALL the documentation to fight the patent predators. len From: John Larmouth [mailto:j.larmouth@s...] Len, I like your comments! And ASN.2 may not be the right descendent. In the present climate "Abstractions" or just "the A notation" might be better! But as you say, many brain cycles could be consumed on the name! Now, am I a pioneer, rancher or cowboy or dude? I am sure I was a pioneer in the 1980s (it is easy to recognise that in retrospect). But it is hard to pretend to be so today (age 60+!). But a rancher - that is for the tool vendors - not me. A cowboy - at least in the UK, that has VERY negative connotations! It means a con-merchant. I hope I am not that. A dude - I guess that has even worse publicity, as a simpleton that understands nothing - but I do seem to get involved in selling - good ideas still seem to need to be sold! Maybe I *am* a dude, but I hope I am not a simpleton. *** (I suggest that no-one replies to this thread - it is not useful!) ***
