We are going ahead with our XFree86 driver plans and Open Source plans, and if the XFree86 community ever decides our SciTech SNAP device driver model has merits, it will be there for the choosing. Personally I no longer care whether it is accepted by XFree86 or not; just whether our customers accept it. Regards, --- Kendall Bennett Chief Executive Officer SciTech Software, Inc.
