that's what it started to be but then other things were attempted to be added
as well... i still have the files for it all here...

altered sections:
  1.1    paragraph 1
  1.3.1  complete
  8      complete
  index  complete
----->8 snip 8<-----

there were two postings of the proposal... one with only sections 1.1 and 1.3.1 
changed... that was the quick simple change that everyone should have been
considering BUT since there was more, other presentations had to be made with
the additional changes... those changes were in section 8 and the index needed
to be adjusted, too... apparently some of the RCs at that time were still using 
old software that could not handle messages over a certain size... also some
were apparently sorting the messages as they arrived to the parts were stored
out of sequence... all in all, enough RCs were confused and decided not to
participate... other RCs were goaded into participating and threatened with
removal of their *C hat...

all in all, if only the one change had been worked with, things would likely
have worked out and the new policy would have been presented to the network for 
the members to decide but since another whole section was also attempted,
well...
