Software wise, your biggest competitive advantage is using a re-branded
BSD operating system.  

On a more serious note, surely I understand and support this position. The
BSD license stays 
for true freedom, unlike the GNU beer . 

But we would never be sure that your company would say no, unless someone
asks. SO I asked here
on this list.What do you say Simon, would you please relay to Juniper
decision factors 
my plea to open source your rights management system back in the BSD
source code pool? 

Then we would know for sure if the answer is yes of no. Answer which of 
course will be respected of the BSD community.
