I think he's referring to the way that PJ and Groklaw essentially "drove" the FLOSS community opposition to SCO v IBM, and saying that the community needs a different person / site to collate and coordinate the response to the MS allegations.

Thanks for the translation. Since a driver against the Microsoft patent threats would be defending free software, I am mystified why anyone would _not_ want the driver to be sympathetic to the organization that promotes free software. Moreover, PJ already has had a warmup with the SCO case and is good at it.
