I don't know.  I'm not trying to fabricate positions out of whole
cloth; I'm just saying what I thought we were doing.  Obviously at
least some other people have a different understanding.  We don't
really have much of this documented, to my knowledge, so there's
nothing that I can go read and say, ok, this is what the procedure is.
Which is kind of unfortunate, actually...
