Cosmetic Carbon Copy on Slashdot
Two months ago, I explained how cosmetic carbon copy could allow you to list recipients in a message who never receive a copy.
Today, thanks to John Stumpo's writing talent and Wes Filardo's IETF-NG, an Internet-Draft informational document has been published.
IETF didn't like it enough to accept it as an April 1 RFC. (I do actually hope that one day someone will submit a modified version to IETF as a rest-of-the-year RFC.)
In first visible comment, an Anonymous Coward writes:
Although it is an April Fool's...this would actually be useful.
Other highlights from the Slashdot discussion:
- An Anonymous Coward writes about an existing implementation.
- quantumplacet actually corrects me on my recollection of the standard.
- Delusion_ complains of April Fool's Day, "I hate today."
