-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 For your convenience, I was compiling a shortlist of the posts I deemed quite worthy of your consideration. As time went on, the futility of the exercise dawned on me. For, apart from the boilerplate posts, flames, invalid arguments and spam, I was rewriting the comment indexes. Today is the last day for public and Member comments on your proposed patent policy [local time]. Over a period of two weeks, numerous people from all walks of life have expressed their concerns for the future of the World Wide Web, and the ramifications of RAND-mode licensing. They also pointed out the numerous pitfalls and booby-traps that come with RAND. Most importantly, many alternative solutions have been proposed that are more pragmatic, implementable and address the issue of software patents. I strongly suggest every post be analysed for its insight and possible solutions within. Incorporate the best wisdom you find into the next draft. We sincerely hope the W3C will do the Right Thing. All the best Jason Antony -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (MingW32) - WinPT 0.4.0 Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE7xlURdo4suhfO5Y4RAisoAJ9/c3ppz5/I72xm31ma8q3h33QLWACgkQMo Q4o2ZUSJmGDCMRf+AyT3LLE= =2hKg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
