[plug] SCOX

[Shayne O'Neill]

Indeed. Mindyou , Microsoft pulling out of that standards body marks some

patents.

That said, microsoft is said to have 5000 patents, Ibm is said to 20,000
odd patents. And while I'm personally adverse against relying on a
corporation with vested interests to protect 'the commons', thats a hell
of a gun to be brandishing.
