That web site does not have any official status wrt the OpenType technology. The content is merely information provided by a user of the OpenType specification, not by an owner of it. Why would you think the creation of this site might suggest that Microsoft is selling off its IP in relation to OpenType to Monotype? If Motorola created a site www.pentium4.org, would you jump to the conclusion that they were selling off that IP? Just to eliminate any confusion, Microsoft most definitely is not decreasing in any way their investment in and support for OpenType. Peter Constable
