Nice try at skirting the point, Chuck, but you know damn well it would
put them, and the others in that field out of business.  Verisign is
getting around pissing off the biggest player by making it a part of
the deal, and avoiding what I would have assumed would have been a
rather nice lawsuit.

solving this problem.
