Hi folks,

I spent a little time browsing the Web for "IPP" today.

Here a couple of scary results:

1) There is something called IPP for "In Person Payments", a variation of Electronic Commerce on the Internet.

2) The Web address  "http://www.ipp.com"  actually takes you to a Microsoft page for "Internet Presence Providers".
I suppose this is better than if it was a porno club, but you may not like it anyway.

3) The Web address "http://www.ipp.org"   still seems to be free, should we try to grab that before it is gone?

Maybe we need to start thinking about yet another name, e.g. Hypertext Internet Printing Protocol (HIPP)?
