Message	And even more unfortunate is that it's never been made public to my knowledge but some well known people here know about it. And the most unfortunate thing is that I think some of the more well known people on this forum that know about it won't say anything publicly about it as I suspect they value their relationship with JWT more than announcing their findings. I wish someone would step up and do the right thing and tell us what they know. These bad cams should be replaced by JWT for free. I'm not saying this is your problem but I'd be suspicious.
