David,

I've already indicated my opinion on the AUUG matter so I won't comment on 
that. One thing that I would like to know is your stance on software patents. 
From reading a few of your recent messages, I gather that you may be in 
favour of them. Can you please clarify your position?

That price might be high. Established companies have an interest in excluding 
future competitors." - Bill Gates, 1991
