Letters of intent, or letters to the editor, may not put bread on the table
for the stockholders and management. They serve to say that the "ecosystem"
is watching. They also say that while this is business, the "ecosystem" is
still passionate about the platform and wishes to maintain it. And if you
don't want it, give it to us. We will take care of it and we will make it
grow.

> The whole point *is* that the letter has nothing in it that could be used
to persuade HP management to action.

> As a company, HP must enhance stockholder wealth. On a micro-level, an
individual HP manager may be motivated if it makes his/her job easier or
increases his performance bonus.
>
> The letter of intent does not increase shareholder's wealth (reference
earlier non-product, non-customer message) nor does it solicit any practical
(i.e.: dollar$) measurement of critical mass for individual managers to
'make a case' for OpenMPE.
