Errr ... in what world would those SUSE developers live? This Novell-MS agreement and its fallout would seem to have direct consequences for the professional careers of everyone involved, no? (regardless of how it plays out in the end)

Also, may I humbly suggest that this is not an America/Japanese topic. The reality is that software gets written in Europe with American / Japanese laws in mind - it would be supremely impractical to settle for software that is (temporarily) legal only in a part of a completely interlinked world. Americal software patents affect us directly here in Europe, already today.
