I have neither the time nor inclination to quibble about this further. No
substantive changes were made to the information there, only to try to
clarify (at least insofar as I understood them) how they applied. I
volunteered to do this simply to assist the IP Committee and Operations
[previously all such inquiries had been referred to David Murdoch via a
mailto link] to facilitate the availability and clarity of information to
those who might be making inquiries. 

In any event, I've jettisoned this page. I'll leave it to others to field
and interpret inquiries as to IP fees and structures.

Nonsense: the whole process of installing and discussing its clarity and
interpretation were made (as they properly are) in continuous consultation
with ccn-ip (with the ccn-board in on the loop for some of the
discussions).

Let me make one other thing perfectly clear: I am perfectly prepared to
discuss with the CCN Chair and Vice Chair and Head of the IP Committee
anything which I have undertaken and if they have an axe to grind, I'll
grind it with them: not with you and your spin on 'alteration',
'consultation', 'authorization' and 'approval' which are entierly your
own.

There are some people who might not be amused at such sophmoric
insinuations that they are drug users.
