Hello:  This is NOT an issue for discussion.  Any organization that promotes 
fee-based software, is a proprietary firm.  W3C.org is fraudulently 
presenting itself to the Public, and especially, to those developers that are 
now working for a profit-making institution without full disclosure, or 
compensation for their work.  Good By, W3C.com.   And, I was looking forward 
to working with Batik.  Too Bad.   Tom
