d Red Hat gain by jacking with the Cornell/UVA project? There is no
competition, they are in different areas of technology.

>> Red Hat is now trying to do the right thing - enforce what they have the authority to go after. The fact that they are in differrent areas of technology makes no differrence legally. There isn't a legal distinction of, 'oh wait...this is a browser and this is an OS so everything's allright'. We tech people think that way. But the judges and looyahs don't see it that way.
See http://www.nissan.com/ >From what I understand, the car company sued someone who had already bought the URL and had a company with Nissan in the name. So basically what this says, is, if a big company wants your domain, it's theirs (got a million dollars to fight it?)...
