Hi, I don't know whether this has come up on the general user list because I'm not subscribed, but I imagine at least some here have seen this recent article in Fortune :
http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2007/05/28/100033867/index.htm Anyone from Sun Legal ou there ? Thought not :-) Now, we can all just sit around guffawing (which is what we generally do anyway when a senior position at MS opens their mouths) or we, as a community, can actually take this seriously, and try to elaborate a response or at least deign to think about it. Let's face it, Sun Legal must know which bits of code were accused of being infringing patents in StarOffice, and some of that code must be in OOo, since in the end a deal was signed to settle all outstanding software patent litigation, so is there any chance of a person like myself (who is sworn to professional secrecy and bears privilege) getting access to that information so I can take a look at it in my spare time ?
