    As I said, I’m open to being corrected. You only showed a wiki article about how the word is now applied to the Internet. But your claim is that the term was around from the start.

    I referenced Interop as an example of how the word Federated wasn’t used to apply to the Internet. You need to support your assertion.

          Your link references papers from 1970… since instance has been in use in computer science for over 50 years what exactly are you trying to argue? Did you even read the one on federation?

          Seriously, just admit when you are wrong and move on.

            YOUR LINK DOES NOT SHOW ANY HISTORICAL USAGE OF FEDERATION.

            YOUR CLAIM WAS THAT IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN USED.

            If I claimed ‘Gay’ has always meant homosexual, and then linked to a Wikipedia definition of its current usage, that’s not proof of anything!

            What the fuck is wrong with you?
