False. I stopped reading at that point, after all, the journalist
was probably just winging it, after a few emails to people who read
the activity at the time (inc many of us doubtless).

The people who know Most about the UCB Lite agreement, won't speak much
anyway - they signed non disclosures.

Cheers,
Julian
