Hi, If you missed the news the United States Patent and Trademark Office (uspto.gov) just granted Microsoft a patent on XUL. See the XUL News Wire Story @ http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.xul.announce/187 for details. Now here's my first reaction: For once it has its benefits that the Mozilla folks haven't touched their XUL docs for ages and are frozen in time. For example, Microsoft filed its XUL patent on May 20, 1999 disclosing its "invention" to the world. Now David Hyatt touched up the chrome configuration spec the last time on April 7, 1999. See yourself online @ http://www.mozilla.org/xpfe/ConfigChromeSpec.html Anyone knows about other links to prior art? - Gerald ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
