I did not realize that williamh is on Sony's payroll.  For all the
talk of conflicts of interest I've seen regarding comrel decisions
(where there is no financial conflict of interest as just about every
company on the planet recognizes), I sincerely hope that williamh
intends to recuse himself from this matter as he has an obvious
financial conflict of interest here.  Ditto for any other employees of
companies that wish to be acknowledged in our copyright notices.
