As I said earlier, I do not want to indulge in religious arguments
regarding the precise meaning of "deprecate". If you want to insist (in
USEAGE) that agents SHOULD NOT place any special interpretation on "Re: =

when they encounter it (which is text #2), then you are not going to get
a consensus in this WG.

My apologies. That message was sent to the wrong list (for reasons
unexplained).
