I am an advocate that represents the public interest, but in addition
to the open and free nature of the internet and web, we also care
about innovation as the internet and web don't exist simply because we
want it to, but because there is a supply and demand element that
makes it happen (which, of course, can also pervert things).

We'd of course like to see CDMs that work on free software and I'm
sure there will be some, but maybe not from content providers or
intermediaries that are worried about copy protection for their
products. (I'd personally like to see that change; out of my hands.)

I'd like to find a way to get the folks working hard on EME the
facilities they need to take their service to the next level, but also
in a way that doesn't herald the end of the open web as Cory has said
recently.

I still don't see a way to do that. I'll continue to look...

best, Joe
