Re: Re: Irrevocability and intellectual property

  In the interest of once again stirring this pot :) , Oh , sorry
that's what I'm responding to :))
  It has to be fair to say that Peter has a strong interest in
determining what other T&C's might also be available to his company.
   Or it could just be interest in furthering the current
"monopolistic" status. :(

   On the other side, I still can't conceive of anyone using Hercules
for real production "MVS" work. Even if IBM eventually comes around,
there are the ISO's and their demand for another pound of flesh.

   Proof of concept for almost any application, is something I think
Hercules is suited for. Show the PHB that it works, and then but the
real iron, or Flex as the case may be.
