It think it would be fairer to say that Red Hat is anti-patent liability exposure and Mono is viewed as a poor liability risk. I think the political landscape concerning Mono would look very different today if spectre of software patent liability didn't exist.

And in that light, I think its very important for customers and potential customers who are interested in the SPICE protocals to put pressure on Red Hat to get the patents that cover SPICE into the OIN portfolio.
