Hello all,

This is Steve's son Octavian writing from Dad's email to let you all 
know he passed away last week.  Some of you might remember me from 
being around during OScon in year's past.  I cc'd my email in case 
anyone would like information for when we do the funeral and such.

"I notice Google and Android are not out there whining like pansies."

Quoted from the article.
"A cell phone industry trade group and various other electronics organizations 
and companies opposed the legislation."

The aforementioned trade groups and organizations are unnamed and the companies 
they're comprised of are unnamed. 

Also, calling things what the really are, corporate power over government 
regulatory action to protect consumers rights verses "whining pansies" goes a 
lot farther in better informing & educating folks on what is really going on
