Re: Forwarded this link...

Thanks. Be interested to see what the lawyers have to say. The\r\ncontract and copyright aspects in particular would be interesting to get\r\nlegal gloss on.

\r\n\r\n

Regards forwarding this elsewhere: I've already been contacted by\r\nNewsForge who are offering to run a cleaned-up version of this, likely\r\ntomorrow if I can clean it up tonight. Which is about right. The main\r\nplace I'd like to get this is to IBM -- I think there are a few insights\r\nwhich might help them (I'm vain that way). SCO may be interested in\r\ngiving it a read as well -- if they can be convinced to quit while\r\nthey're well behind, so much the better.

Consider the job: to build a structure based on live bone and meat that has to perform under extreme forces in one of the most corrosive environments on the planet. Has to look good too.
