Contracts are the key.

Agreed. The more that can be explicitly spelled out about these matters, the better. A separate problem arises when the government compels the disclosure of information for one purpose - getting a driver's license, say - and then turns around and sells it to others. It's much harder to either negotiate a new contract or go to a competitor when the other party is a government. -- Bruce Baugh bruce@aracnet.com http://www.aracnet.com/~bruce
