I am suprised at the amount of speculation on this list; apparently few have taken the time to read the patent in detail or the IEEE Visualization paper. From my reading of those documents, I think the claim language is straight-forward and clearly differentiates this invention from the earlier work that has been discussed. I do not believe patents, software or not, are inherently bad. In fact, I believe they are the best defense the technical community has to ensure that innovation continues against the hegemony of the WINTEL duopoloy. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
