Clift: the concert is good, BUT. There are patents on most of the common Radio and TV circuits in use today. Patents on X2 and 56K modem design. Still we have free speech. I am sure there are parents on most paper printing equipment also. Why should technology that may be of use to many (Internet) be different. AS fast as a Draft RFC becomes public, in most cases its Intellectual Property also becomes public domain. If anyone has a product, concept or solution that they want the World ( or at least the USA ) to have free rights to , just publish. Of course these thoughts are mine, not my employers, and now public domain. G.K. (The Power is in the Packet) "TDK"
