Host requirements RFCs..

[Bob Stewart <stewart at xyplex.com>]

I second Bill Westfield's sigh about checking off the do/don'ts from copies of
the requirements pages.  I just did it, too.  I doubt that most of the people
who pick up on that trick will understand what they get back.  Many of them
will be scared off by the painfully honest who admit that their terminal
server doesn't do the things a general host must, or confused and suspicious
of attempts to explain.

It would be nice if the requirements were clearer about applicibility in
special purpose hosts.  Like it or not, with all us vendors in the game, the
average level of sophistication in the Internet community can only decrease
(not from us, from our customers! :-} ).  Commercial success brings its own
set of problems and responsibilities.
