[WikiEN-l] HD DVD key mess - OFFICE/Foundation?

[Philippe Beaudette]

Can we write the article without publishing the string?  Sure.  So why do we have to do it, and potentially expose ourselves to liability?  If there's a way to do it, with no loss of academic integrity, why the heck wouldn't we?

  Publishing the string would be part of writing an article.  It's true that
  few people may look up the article in order to get the string, but that's true
  of many facts in many articles.
