Oops.  Backwards thinking.  Such a plan of deception is only conceivable
in an environment where access to the documents is restricted, such as
the existing OSI world.  In a world where OSI documents are distributed
electronically at a low cost, a scam like this wouldn't be worth the
effort to consider.  It wouldn't fool anyone, but it might easily lead
to a fraud conviction.
