>Can anyone say "software patents"?
At the point that the absurdity starts to threaten cashflow, someone will play the Qoheleth card ("There is nothing new under the sun") and bury the idiot in prior art.

>And Eben Moglen I'd trust with my life.
A strong endorsement. I like the GPL more from the 'sheer common sense' angle than the ethical angle, and I hope that the FSF doesn't become increasingly evangelical about it.

>Yeah, though it's conceivable that MS is big enough that one section is completely at odds with another on particular issues.
It's a fairly known fact that MS has a darwinian internal culture.
