Re: [lac-discuss-en] Rule 11.2

["Roosevelt King" <rok@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"In no case" means "under any circumstances", even if you say there are 
exceptions, the exceptions would be one case/circumstance... the rule says, "in 
no case". I am not sure what is so difficult about that to understand or is it 
a case of unwillingness to understand? The English version does not confirm 
your interpretation and hence there is no way that the Spanish version could. 
Using language as a Red Herring? Is not the official language English? The 
Spanish translators need to get it right? You questioning the translation? That 
does not make you right???

I disagree.

Furthermore, if you read the Spanish version, the wording confirms our 
interpretation.
