Yes *early* IETF standards were clean, but they are supposed to be the
guardians of the I in IETF, and have been delinquent by allowing IP
constrain
On the IETF thread, the early standards were 'clean'. And there is a
requirement to register patent interests against RFC's.

The IETF has lost a lot of credibility as an independent standards body, and
really ought to be ashamed. But they are har
AIUI, the legality of Sun's specification licenses is considered dubious.
Not that dubious defines a stance or action, just a note.

NMS is a .NET version of JMS.
Not quite. Its a .Net Messaging API to the various MOMs available on
the .Net platform such as MSMQ, TibCo, MQSeries together with new
implementations such as for ActiveMQ and Stomp. Its just as si

Maybe we should create a set of APIs that offer genuinely open access
to messaging systems on .NET, Java, C, C# etc. Of course if Sun wished
to offer us the JMS API under an unencumbered license we could do
