I have recevied some good information from the ALS mailing list I have joined. There have been some members in with the Italian government, and are using other avenues to find out how to make IPLEX available to everyone else. I'll post a bit of the correspondence from the mailing list when I have a chance.

Good luck to all, and I'm glad my petition has brought this very important issue to the front line. It's time that the people take the greed out of corporate America.
