Your addition of a company infobox to the article on the BLAST Protocol edit

Dear Yoodaba, your addition of a company infobox to the BLAST (Protocol) article is appreciated; however, the intention of this article is to focus on the protocol itself as opposed to the companies involved in its commercialization, inasmuch as there have actually been at least five such companies -- AMP, Data Systems of Baton Rouge, and Communications Research Group, all of Baton Rouge; US Robotics of Chicago; and BLAST, Inc. of North Carolina -- and and whose complete story would fill a book. (In fact, I had started a stub article on the chief such company, Communications Research Group, but no one else bothered to add to it, and so another Wikipedia editor folded it back into the protocol article.) As such, the current infobox is rather misleading, as it would take an amazingly complicated company infobox to truly and completely represent the commercial, as opposed to the technical, history of the protocol. In fact, it would be kind of like doing a company infobox for, say, Unix! So would you be very upset if I restored the article to its previous state?

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
