The announced "Consultation about the Open Source trademark", posted
on Nov 24 1998, states:

The consultation period will end at midnight at the end of the
calendar year 1998, UTC. All consultation responses will be made
public by SPI after the consultation period has closed, unless the
respondent specifically requests otherwise.

Being well after new-year, I believe time has come to clean up this
mess one way or another. It does seem like SPI can expect solid
support for its position - at least if the only other alternative is
to legally transfer the mark to OSI.
