What do you say, if somebody would like to patent a process of breathing?

Our team has been aware of this situation. It's big trouble if it's to be
sold to the highest bidder; ignorantly speaking, Microsoft should appear to
outstand the competition in financial strength.

He's selling it to me.  My master plan is to kill AJAX, and this was the
only way... by owning Flash, too.  However, you all have nothing to fear
since I love Flash so rest easy.

:-) No Chad, I'm quite sure few, if any, are aware of this:

"The patent--issued on Valentine's Day--covers all rich-media technology
implementations, including Flash, Flex, Java, Ajax, and XAML, when the
rich-media application is accessed on any device over the Internet,
according to the patent holders...

A patent has been granted to a relatively unknown California Web-design
firm
for an invention its creator says covers the design and creation of most
rich-media applications used over the Internet. The patent holder,
Balthaser
Online Inc., says it could license nearly any rich-media Internet
application across a broad range of devices and networks.

Potentially tens of thousands of businesses--not only software makers
employing its business processes but companies offering rich-media on
their
Websites--could be subject to licensing fees when they use rich-media
technology over the Internet."

Guess Adobe AND Microsoft got caught with their pants down. But all is not
lost. Neil Balthaser, a former VP of strategy for Macromedia, plans to
sell
the patent to someone...
