I have always been told that failing to promptly informing an infringer of a problem will jeopardize any future ability to go after an infringer. All it takes is a letter stating that you think that an infringer is infringing and request that they either stop or enter negotiations to license patent. In the GIF and MP3 cases the patent owners had a lot of time to inform at least some of the infringers so I think that they would have a much harder case in court.

Perl in a Nutshell was my first Perl purchase. It helped me quickly go up the learning curve with Perl. I did find that some areas were just too terse to be useful as an initial learning book. It is the first book that I reach for when I need Perl information. _________ flashcommerce.com
