,

Waaaay back in Dec 27 of 1999, I made the following statement
on this list:

>>The _only_ innovations which Microsoft has contributed to the
>>Internet are BAD ones, which were intended to either (1) invade
>>user privacy, (2) destroy another company, or (3) corrupt a
>>standard not owned by Microsoft.


The world has move a long ways in the past two years, and I'll
soften the above statement and say I believe the above to be only
_largely_ true.

I have been asked for specific examples of "(3) corrupt a standard
not owned by Microsoft.

You guys are the experts and have documentation in hand.  Can you
provide me any examples of my statement with details?  I am
swamped, and cannot spend any time on this myself.  Thanks!
