Standards?  The Internet was built by people who created standards first and
then documented them.

Of course, those people didn't have to deal with the justice department.

#ifdef TONGUE_FIRMLY_IN_CHEEK

I keep reading about what a great thing Microsoft BackOffice is.  And I hear
what great things you guys are going to do with Hotmail and it's 67+ million
alleged users.  Surely, there's some technology laying around...

I mean, the entire Microsoft .NET concept is predicated upon a central data
store.  For that, Microsoft went out and invented an yet another programming
language...

And I can't even get a little, tiny thing like a true centralized mail
store? ;-)
