QUESTIONS RAISED

With the latest court ruling, some immediate quesitons come to mind:

1. Will the catamaran challenge by BMW/Oracle be scrapped along with these hot boats?
2. Will Alinghi and its far-flung advertisers get "back aboard" for the next Cup event?
3. Will it be possible for the Alinghi folks to tread that fine line between gloating ("Told you so. Told you so!") and being just plain happy, to get things back on track quickly with a minimum of upset?
4. With the Challengers return "to the fold" and get their boats in the water, that is, off the drawing board and ready to race in 2009?
5. Will any new legal challenges be waged by BMW/Oracle to stall things again and again?

Anyone have any hints about this?
