Hello,

Well that's logical.  If you sell the rights to something you no longer
have control over the licensing of that product.  BTW has anyone
actually attempted to purchase the patent that applies to Selinux?  All
that would be needed is to purchase the rights to use it in Selinux but
not the complete patent.

Ed

=> The part about competitive products is a minor issue.  The major
issue is
=> that they can sell the patents (even to a wholly owned subsidiary)
and
=> not
=> have the assurance statement apply.
