The U.S. subsidiary has requested that they be removed from the suit. Since they had no part in any of this and are neither the parent nor subsidiary of the Australian division, it's likely this will happen unless the judge is completely out to lunch. (That doesn't mean "definitely" though!) Including Creative Commons is just bizarre. Either the plaintiffs have no idea what Creative Commons is or they're just looking for a U.S.-based entity to sue in hopes of getting a big, out-of-court settlement. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
