I didn't know about this---thanks! Two points worth noting:

1) In the CCRDSS license in section 3 iii that we cannot:

"distribute Distributable Code to run on a platform other than the Windows
platform;"

2) Trower states that the CCRDSS will become part of .NET. I would guess
that there are patents in this.

I was hoping that MS would make the CCR/DSS available as source. As is, our
project will have to work around this. I have a question in to our MS
contacts, and will report back here when I hear something.
