<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I think the proponents of the closed database have repeatedly articulated the benefits they see in a closed database. That is the status quo. In order to change the status
quo, it is the proponents for an open system that need to articulate (persuasively) an overriding need or benefit for such a change.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
