So that reasoning is illogical. > Rahul, The bug says, Red Hat reviews and scrubs its code for intellectual property issues. Our approach has always been conservative, i.e., if there is any question, resolve the issue or remove the code. Red Hat recently implemented a number of changes in its distribution of OpenOffice to address such issues. These changes should not be construed as implying any immediate intellectual property problem; rather, they have been implemented to assure that no such immediate problems arise. While implementing these changes in our own distribution of OpenOffice, we have also made them available upstream to the OpenOffice project. Is there any word (that you've heard by rumor) that indicates what the possible immediate intellectual property problem may be? The bug report doesn't specify anything. Thank you. -- Chris
