One would like very much to hear what Red Hat has to say about the alleged pro software patent lobbying done by their counsel.

I doubt there is much to that.

Reading between the lines, it sounds like Florian is mad about something, possibly RedHat not funding him anymore, and is trying to take revenge by writing nasty stuff about them in his blog.

I'm more interested in why RedHat decided not to continue funding him. I suspect I would agree with their reasons.
