Hi Art, the pessimistic XMLSECPAG chair told you that it wouldn't resolve within days. But I hope to have a clear view and plan by the end of January. Executing that plan may take some time. Plan is to resolve until end of March, if everything goes well. Well meaning a decision of the PAG and the execution thereof, not necessarily finding a way to destroy the disclosed patents. The three years can be explained by very promising negotiations with Certicom on an RF license that finally failed because of an overreaching clause on defensive suspension. We were really close to a resolution.
