Re: RDF under patent attack?

["jdklubnik" <pseudonym@mindspring.com>]

i also recieved a letter regarding the same two patents by the same 
company. my letter is rather vague, saying only that RSS and RDF 
*may* fall under the claims of the patents. it wasn't threatening. i 
plan to write back and see if they can perhaps be a little more 
specific about their intentions.

for those interested, here are the two patents.
