		<description>Hi Karen,

Right on!  Everyone has an agenda. I was pretty shocked when I attended my first few standards meetings.

I would have loved to have read your blog beforehand.

Take Care,

		<description>Vote ... did someone say vote ;-)

In all seriousness, with respect to the Accellera VIP TSC, I believe that OVM and VMM are just proxies for the respective vendors&#039; simulation products. So there is obvious vested interest in the outcome. Given the state of the industry and economy, those battles have an even greater significance now.

Or as they great philosopher &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Risky_Business#Guido&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Guido the Killer Pimp once said&lt;/a&gt;, &quot;In a sluggish economy, never ever (mess) with another man&#039;s livelihood&quot;.</description>

		<description>JL,

One can certainly do this. If willing to risk their own strategy being revealed, that is. That conversation is exhilarating. :)

		<description>So, would it be a standards faux pas if someone actually pointed out in public what side/strategy they felt everyone was taking? Then instead of arguing about things, we could have a vote and all go on vacation for the length of time of any desired delay :-).
