Subject: Re: [ws-caf] Issue 7 revisit


I agree with Doug: the original issue was about whether we should use the
term Respondant or Respondent. I flipped a coin when I made the suggestion
for Issue 7 to the group (should have checked the dictionary!) So, although
we voted on what it would be, the fact is that Respondant isn't a valid word
anyway and if I'd known about that at the time I'd have voted against my own
resolution :-0
