>* Help Us Bust the Goldberg Online Gaming Patent
>
>As many of you know, EFF has gone into the Patent Busting
>business.  We're closing in on our third target -- the
>Goldberg Online Gaming patent, but we need your help. We've
>written up a description of the killer prior art needed to
>take this patent down; now you need to help us find it. Take
>a look at the description and send it around to any friends
>or colleagues you might know who are familiar with multi-
>player online gaming technology, especially pre-1996
>technology that involved network tournament games,
>advertising to users, or any kind of real-time ranking
>system.  In particular, we are interested in any information
>on a multiplayer space fantasy game called "Federation," "The
>ImagiNation Network," and pre-1996 "Shadow of Yserbius" and
>"Netrek" -- but all tips are welcome!
