I want to voice my strong disagreement with the plans to consider specifications based on patents that require royalty payments. I believe that when these financial interests are introduced, a whole new dimension is added. I have no doubt that companies will market standards based on these patents only to later abuse those who adopt the standards. MP3 and GIF are perfect examples. --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? Listen to your Yahoo! Mail messages from any phone with Yahoo! by Phone.
