How many people read it and commented before spreading it? My own quick comments: 1. I wouldn't use the verb "request". Maybe "ask" or something softer. They do not owe you anything. Also no "as soon as possible". 2. Not "X-Window". The X manpage specifically asks that you call it either "X" or "X Window System" (and some other versions). 3. I wouldn't use this petition to laugh at Windows. 4. I am not sure I would give them business suggestions about how to solve their IP problems. There are also other options - e.g. to ask that they release only the parts they own, at least for a start. 5. There is no need to mention you intend to reverse-engineer it, IMHO. This isn't a threat, but a petition. -- Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
