I do not make a pit of murder out of my heart. I consider 90% of the existing standards to be redundant, unnecessary and confusing, or as a colleague of mine once said: "As long as there are different sockets in Euopa, I don't believe in standardization, certainly not...
This glossary already includes the additions that will be referenced in the second edition of the guide (2021). In the future, the glossary will only be maintained here as an online version (krm.swiss/glossar), because this allows the technical terms and links to be...
