Open source developers wary of MS graphics patent grab (Register)

The Register
follows up on a
previous article with comments from its readers. "
We know from
their other publications that "more effective in a corporate sense" means
"proprietary", and especially "not GPL", in Microsoftese. The subtext is
that they're offering a Devil's bargain - OpenGL can have this technology
without fear of Microsoft's claims on it, provided OpenGL makes it and all
the rest of OpenGL's own technology unavailable to those Godless commie
open source loons."
