Not really and nor could you "embrace and extend". Soon we will be allowed access to the TCKs (fingers crossed) which means we can implment the spec legally. However there has not been any change to any of the licenses regarding the specification materials which means it is still a violation of the license if you were to try and "corrupt" a spec or "embrace and extend" a spec by poorly-implementing it (and failing the TCK). However now we can at least implement the spec(s). -- Cheers, Pete --------------------------------------------- We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time -- T.S.
