RE: [lemonade] LEMONADE vs. P-IMAP

[<Zoltan.Ordogh at nokia.com>]

Thank You for the clarification Randall,
it confirms that my understanding about the way of working in IETF is correct.
However, I was looking for a different answer.
I see confused people every day who think that P-IMAP is actually the LEMONADE standard. This is the reason why I asked Ben for clarification. I would like to end this confusion - it is not good for anyone(*) I believe - and this is the exact reason why I asked about P-IMAP (will it become standard, will it be in LEMONADE or should it be separate WG, etc).
Does the WG have a solid opinion on this issue at all?
The LEMONADE standard is called LEMONADE Profile and not P-IMAP, right? Or, maybe both? I would really appreciate if someone could clarify this in a way that everyone agrees to.
Thank You.

(*) Including me. Personally, I got tired of explaining over and over again that P-IMAP is not the LEMONADE stardard, the LEMONADE standard is LEMONADE Profile.
