"It will shame vendors into action '''

What a wierd academic view of the world. Mike, companies do things because
they make profits doing things. If you want a vendor to do X, show that
vendor that doing X will earn at least enough in revenue to cover the
cost of doing X, and hopefully more. The idea of "shaming" a company to
take a decision not in its financial interest is silly!
