And it's probably not a useful way to spend our time anyway. Let other people worry about it first, it's not really within the remit of -legal at this stage. If it's still not dead when people with some immediate relevance have dealt with it, maybe we should look at it then. Any effort on our part at this stage is wasted if somebody else shoots it down first, and has the extra effect of legitimising the thing. I doubt it will get to a point where we should bother with it before the end of the year. In short: don't bother us with news reports about press releases that say some company might be thinking about submitting something to somebody else at some unspecified date in the future. Only events which have actually happened and we have some reason to care about, please. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
