Uh, what? RFP had an update on his site the day the media story broke. And the 
idea that he would wait for Microsoft to release a BULLetin is just too 
hysterical for words. I am a writer myself (www.sunworld.com) and believe me, I 
would *not* wrire an article without at least checking out the facts. I am also 
under deadlines, but that story broke on a Friday morning. By that afternoon, 
RFP released an advisory on his site. It wasn't worth at least looking at his 
site?! Please.
