What would be even better would be a free, open-source, cross-platform User Agent which is _not_ encumbered by the GPL.
I like it better "encumbered" so nobody can take the source, add some proprietary tags and take over the standard.
Of course, nowhere does OpenReader propose a commercial application (although it does not forclose the possibility), so any mention of a commercial app here is a bit of a red herring.
Proposing a standard without proof of implementability is a red herring. Wanting to see at least one implementation before adopting a standard is just common sense. -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.org
