Well, I wish I agreed that this was good idea, but anyway I upvoted
pensku back into positives because I can't wait to see where this goes.
Let's not attack anyone for their ideas!

Thanks. I'm only trying to get a discussion going, no more, no less.

Selpa'i still has not made his intentions clear.
Selpa'i still has not brought a single argument here defending the
practise of intentionally breaking the rafsi meaning.
Pensku is redundant and misleading. Being there “to test the waters”,
this word certainly has no place in a printed dictionary.

And this is the last thing I want to say about this on Jbovlaste, please
go to the mailing list if you still insist on this word or want to discuss
this in detail (jbovlaste is not really well suited for long discussions).

(You can use that argument when we get to making a printed dictionary, and
then we'll have to erase a lot more than just this one word)

(I'm not here to "insist" on anything. Although technically everyone is
allowed to define words as they wish)

I didn't intend to discuss this here; there is already a discussion going
on on IRC (and it's by far not the first one about this topic). Others are
discussing it, and that's the whole point.
