   There is an effort to make the PATENT invalid.  The World Wide Web Consortium    
   is challenging the patent.   
      
   I wouldn't worry much about it.   If anything, it isn't us or you that have    
   license it.  It is Microsoft if they want to keep allowing it in the browser.    
   But with the challenge now, it will be a while before something comes out of    
   this.
