Thanks for the link.  I included "licensing issues" specifically for
this reason.  If Yahoo were included into a game through licensing
instead of reverse engineering, I would think that Yahoo (or another
chat system) might actually embrace the move.  Surely Yahoo would
like to have the additional visibility.
