Sorry for the delay. No my code does nothing that they don't do. Only that it isn't "public". Not sure of the reason, perhaps they want users to stick to their software... no, no $'s to be made here...

Pardon my rambling & meanders. I'm sort off in a discovery mode - unsure of issues involved, and the right questions to ask... Thanks all.

<t>Thanks all for your thoughts. The "somehow" came legally from the company, ie doc describing the scheme... in stating such, I was trying avoid details; perhaps it is an important point? No intention of recirculating any data. The issue is the reader I wrote, I would like to release it as part of ...

<t>Thanks untwigged. Now that you mention a patent on FAT, what crosses my mind is Linux's attempts to read NTFS. Several years ago, I recall installing a package to read my NTFS formatted partition (perhaps it's default in current Linux installs?). Then, I recall reading that the team that had writ...

<t>I'm trying to navigate issues that might have legal repercussions, or so I think. Any thoughts on the following, or it's variations, would be well appreciated. 1. A software outputs data in a certain format they've conceived. Is this format considered the software vendors intellectual property? A...

Mixing Systems of Equations

<t>Hello Folks, Am looking for some perspective on the following problem/attempt...I have 2 separate rank-deficient linear system of equations (ie there's a null space to each and they aren't the same null spaces). There's at least some overlap in their column subspaces. Furthermore, the null space ...

Unaccredited Investors

<t>Let me state that my understanding of these issues is raw at best. Your post made me re-think my comment and the issue of why unaccredited vs. accredited investor. It was furthest from my mind to suggest that the unaccredited investor is naive. You note that the reason why one taps into the unacc...

Unaccredited Investors

<t>BTW, the reason we are looking into unaccredited investors as opposed pure VC (is that the right term?) is, I'm told, that VC $'s currently might be too expensive. It appears that the going rate is around 50% of your venture. Of course, many variables govern the numbers...Besides, in the first le...

Unaccredited Investors

<t>Hi Folks, Am interested in knowing the maximum number of "unaccredited" investors a start-up can enroll. Generally it appears that if the total amount of funds raised is less than $1 mil., then the max no. of unaccredited investors is 35. Several sites also note that it is also dependent on the s...
