Nothing. Nothing at all. My personal opinion is that what Mastercoin has started will turn the world on its ear, but I'd be surprised if the succesful implementations of the underlying ideas come from that team. But there's nothing surprising about that - when was the last time you used Netscape Navigator, let alone NCSA Mosaic? -- 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 00000000000000000681f4e5c84bc0bf7e6c5db8673eef225da652fbb785a0de
