Bayer and Botha sold their shares in SPS Vicotec to the Shepherdsons late last year for a nominal R1 each, and after that brought an application for the winding up of SPS Vicotec.
This winding up was sought as Bayer and Botha were seeking a final settlement from SPS Vicotec, but the judge has held in his summation of the case that the winding-up application was not just and equitable.
Part of Judge Schabort's ruling was based on his assessment that Bayer and Botha had failed to disclose the existence of a Memorandum of Understanding, (referred to in the proceedings as "DS3"), a written agreement entered into by the four directors to dissolve the relationship between them.

But, perhaps the most useful lesson that I got out of Dave Bayer's outstanding talk was the advice that it sometimes could be useful to abandon the sacrosanct obsession, that we mathematicians have, with minimality.
In Dave Bayer's talk he mentioned, that he himself, as the pioneering co-developer (with Mike Stillman) of the Macaulay system, was always using Groebner bases because these are canonical and, in a certain sense, minimal (if they are reduced).
Dave Bayer's advice gave us renewed hope, and now we are searching for other, not necessarily canonical, and not necessarily reduced, bases, that would, who knows?, prove the conjecture.
