        Well, that was my unstated concept.
        Are we afraid of some idiotic conspiracy,
        or collusion?  Or can we accept that
        Perfect Paul (or some other file) be
        made the "standard?"

        Does the government own PP, or
        would that create (oh my, lawyers
        salivate) royalty issues?

        Maybe the EAS manufacturers could
        combine efforts in an "open software"
        effort to make a standard?
