Jeff Vance writes a well said response to Wirt's comments about the
license, so I won't go there.

I would like to say, though that so far I've seen only one positive
comment about the significant of this event. The rest can be taken as
negative.

OK - you guys that are complaining are welcome to be off of MPE at
the end of 2006 and I don't expect you to look back and make any
comments about what could've been or what might've been. If you stand
on the sidelines and complain and don't offer constructive help, I
don't want to hear about it. Otherwise, get involved. If you think
you can do better than the current Board, run against me ... I'm up
for re-election.

The OpenMPE Board, Jeff Vance, Mike Paivinen and the rest of the
people involved that pulled this off need to be commended for the
time and work spent on this effort. Without any licensing, there
ain't no tomorrow. Period. End of story. Last one out, please turn
out the lights.

After all, you now have an alternative after 2006 that wasn't there
just a few days ago. So, work with it and see where we go.

Spoken for myself.
