AGORACOM NEWS FLASH

Dear Agoracom Family,

I want to thank all of you for your patience with us over the past 48 hours and apologize for what was admittedly a botched launch of our new site.

As you can see, we have reverted back to the previous version of the site while we address multiple forum functionality flaws that inexplicably made their way into the launch.

To this end:

1.We have identified 8 fundamental but easily fixable flaws that will be corrected in the coming week, so that you can continue to use the forums exactly as you've been accustomed to.

2.Additionally we will also be implementing a couple of design improvements to "tighten up" the look and feel of the forums.

Sincerely,

George et al

 I believe that the sale of Denselight was always part of the Plan.                                            

Poet has/had accomplished everything they wanted to at Denselight; Build and test the Optical Interposer and other optical devices, install new equipment needed, hire engineers and staff. Poet was able to retain 100% ownership of all the IP assocaited with the insallation of these processes at Denselight.

While Poet was developing the Interposer, using their own Fab was essential to retain full ownership of the IP, and keeping costs in check.

My understanding is we now make money from the direct sale of all Interposer or Optical devices that are made through licencing of Poet's patents at Denselight.

I would then expect this Denselight experience to happen again, with another company, without Poet actually buying the company. Think contract work, Poet comes into a InP company Fab, and retofits equipment, processes and people to install  Poet IP  into the Fab. Poet leaves the fab, while still owning the IP, and makes a licensing portion of each unit sold through that Fab. Not to mention, getting paid for doing work retrofitting the fab.

Can you say "Next" ?

This is my opinion.
