RE: [chairs] Of un-patents and un-inventions

David-
	Can you explain to me how your proposal is different than sites
(and there are several, last time I looked) like the one you mention?
Why is the PTO going to pay any more attention to this effort? While I
do think it would be interesting for OASIS pursue something like this,
I'd hate for it to be ignored just like previous efforts.
