It would be great to have S-V published authors write, but I see nothing 
wrong with S-V customers writing.

"Reading Between the Lines ...", the "Felten team" paper, would have been 
published by S-V had things not blown up at the Information Hiding Workshop 
in April.  You know this, but if others don't, Scott was a major 
contributor to that body of work.

Not sure about Scott, but I do have knowledge of something else in the 
works, which S-V is considering publishing, and which is DMCA relevant.  My 
apologies for being constrained from stating the details, its a sensitive 
topic right now, but you (and some other list members) know, as a practical 
matter, that my unsubstantiated word is good.  This was one of the 
motivations in my prior post on this thread.
