<p class="MsoNormal">Dean, as to your question on the Trend Micro proposal, I think you were referring to an earlier version of our proposal (which was Mozilla-like, in that the “module owner” could form the final proposal for the working group and bring to
 the Forum for consideration).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
