Paul has zero involvement at MAPS.  He hasn't had any involvement with 
MAPS for quite a while.  AFAIK, he is President of PAIX, not CTO of 
MFN.

Dave is the Executive Director of MAPS.  He is no longer at MFN. Hasn't 
been for a quite a while.

I am never anything BUT painfully honest. There is nothing disingenuous 
about this at all.  There is *no* relationship between the management 
of MAPS and that of above.net, MFN, PAIX or any other entity.

Please check your facts before you question someone's integrity.
