an 'rfc' is just that, a 'request for comments'. 'comments' are just that,
comments to the 'rfc'.

a comment can not be adopted as they are not a request. comments can be
rewritten as an 'rfc' and written in such a way that it becomes a 'request',
to which more comments can be made.

an 'rfc' can be rewritten and resubmitted with 'comments' to previous 'rfc'
included and then become a new 'rfc'.


in a respect, your post is a 'request for comments'. what i reply, or any one
else replies, is a 'comment'. we are not requesting for a 'comment', tho there
may/will be.

in another respect, you post a request for technical help. those who reply
are offering help, either as a direct 'comment' to your request for help,
or as a reference to where and/or how you can get help.

therefore, i may not answer your question to your satisfaction, but i am
offering help. in turn, someone may reply further to this 'comment', or
offer a 'comment' of their own.
