Yes, well, you see the problems are that most of the people raising hell about the patent haven't read it, never mind trying to understand it. How many people really do - or for that matter, did before or after the patent - object mappings based on a schema and an annoted source code file? And for that matter - why would one want to do that anyways? > cheers, > Jonathan > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQFCm1yM64+f0AXUe+4RAq0IAKCW/SQqzhrJesL1N0UDgMmItpAKpQCgojHL > 9/uYoI16nhWOmWfTwEW8NiM= > =zNL5 > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Sander .sigless ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?
