Sorry for the off-topic post, but people should know what is going on and
this kind of conniving tends to not make the public news.

"Feb. 5, 2004  |  WASHINGTON (AP) --  Stung by earlier court rulings,
Microsoft Corp. has positioned one of its top lawyers to run a legal
committee to influence how much oversight U.S. courts exercise in
antitrust settlements like the one the company negotiated with the Bush
administration.

The debate over how aggressively federal judges should scrutinize these
settlements is pivotal in the next major ruling in Microsoft's
long-running antitrust case, a decision that could come as early as
Friday. "
