[edit] lose-lose

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the definition as provided here is obsolete. The correct definition is listed as common in US parlance- that it is a settlement made by concessions on both sides. I am from the US so obviously this page seems incorrect to me--however I find no evidence that other English speaking countries officially use compromise as it is defined here--as a synonym for negotiation.134.84.136.33 20:47, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
