Fair point, but as I believe it was Jochem who pointed it out, this patent isn't their core service. A cursory look at their web site (www.eolas.com) shows that they seem to be more into biotechnology that web browser technology. So it seems that, in order to really stick it to Microsoft (if they wanted to), Eolas could strike some sort of licensing agreement with the other vendors. Although that's probably a bit optimistic, they do technically now have an extra $521 million, so why not be charitable with the open-source people!! ;) Regards, Dave. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Your ad could be here.
