I think we're either conformant or not ;-)  The "much more" sounds
very marketing-departement-ish.



Why? We are more conformant than before because we accepts more well-formed
programs which before were rejected, and we reject more ill-formed programs
which before were accepted. Maybe my english is in fault? How would you
rephrase it?

I agree with you Giovanni, the alternative would be to say
'differently non conformant' which would be a stupid declaration. IIRC,
we've used something close to your phrasing in previous releases.
