Rande- re:5822523...

Well, we will see. I am not a software engineer, but from the looks of the patent it is hard to imagine the claims of the patent as locked by one company. I guess I would have to research how Ethernet became patentable because it uses some similar underlying technology.

To me, it appears that this is the case of enforcing a patent on word processing, voice-mail or Kleenex (do tissue manufacturers pay a licensing fee to Kimberly-Clark, owner of Kleenex?)

Just my opinion.

Jon :)
