The discussion has been interesting and has brought up some topics,
such as what case insensitivity means in non-English languages, that
many of the readers were evidently unaware of.  However, it's getting
a bit out of hand.

IEEE P1003.1 is interested in promoting portability of applications
by defining a UNIX-like operating system interface.  Any major change
from a feature of *every* variant of UN*X, such as case-sensitive
file names (really, filenames as uninterpreted byte strings), needs
major justification before being considered.  So further assertions
of the form "I want it because I like it" are not of interest.  It
would be most interesting to see the results of a survey on user
reaction to case sensitivity or insensitivity, but this newsgroup
isn't the place to conduct such a survey, and it's not clear that
the results would be relevant to 1003.1 anyway (what does case
mean in Japanese or Finnish)?

So, unless you've got something new to say on this subject, please
let's go on to something else.
