[Samba] MS CIFS licensing - should we worry?

[Thomas.Cameron at CameronTech.com]

All -

I have been using Samba since late 1996, and I owe a debt of gratitude 
to Tridge, Jeremy, and all the rest of the amazing crew who have 
contributed.

The note on Slashdot about Microsoft forbidding anyone releasing a CIFS 
workalike scares me - a lot.  Does this put Samba in jeopardy?

I've looked through the archive, and I've seen nothing on this topic. 
If this has already been answered, please forgive me.  I must not have 
looked for the right subject lines.

Thanks,
Thomas
