Simon. I rather OFF be so clearly and blatantly out of tune and the rest of
us just innovate regardless of it, which is what will happen eventually if
my complaints are not heard, than to keep the *appearance* that there
exists a fair way to contribute to an international file format.

You already embarked on a solo'ish journey. Why do you insist on keeping
the OFF status quo and keeping a closed eye to the abuses going on in it?

forward to reading it.
