No, I'd be happy to implement this protocol, provided that (i) the protocol
is described in some public document (i.e., so I know how to implement it),
and (ii) I'm assured that this information was obtained by 'reverse
engineering' (which is legal in the U.S.), rather than by 'theft of a trade
secret' (which is not).
