I'm really interested in the idea that Microsoft has licensed patents to me. OpenSUSE and SLES (or whatever they are calling it these days) both ship my code. According to the press release, contributors to OpenSUSE and SLES are granted license to Microsoft patents. That is dandy indeed. Which patents? I'm planning to violate the heck out of them as soon as I find out.

Note that for the OpenSuse part you're only covered as a developer if your contribution is integrated in SLES. Also, it seems users of the OpenSuse packages are not covered. Definitely using the same code through another distro is off-limits.
