Return-Path: albion@novadigm.com X-Authentication-Warning: www10.w3.org: Host novadigm.com [204.7.83.99] claimed to be mail-srv.novadigm.com From: Albion Fitzgerald <albion@novadigm.com> To: "'timbl@w3.org'" <timbl@w3.org> Subject: Draft "DRP" submission possible patent infringement Date: Wed, 27 Aug 1997 08:28:21 -0400 Return-Receipt-To: Albion Fitzgerald <albion@novadigm.com> Dear Tim, I think you should know that based on the description provided by your web site and in their press release, aspects of Marimba's 'Distribution and Replication Protocol' (DRP) submission if implemented may be in violation of our patent. Since this matter is currently part of a patent infringement lawsuit filed against Marimba in March, we would ask that the W3C defer consideration of the submission until this dispute is resolved. The enclosed release will explain our position. I would welcome an opportunity to discuss the issue with you further at your convenience.
