One thing I must note: I have not, and will not, read any patent which is alleged to be infringed by Hercules, and I strongly recommend no other Hercules developer do so. It is a matter of law that someone who is not a patent attorney is not competent to decide if a patent is being infringed, and attempting to do so makes one liable for willful infringement - with treble damages. (I'm not just making this up; I've been told this by several patent attorneys, and it is a bit of commonly accepted wisdom.) ------------------------ Yahoo!
