Fun with software patents [LWN.net]

Much of this week's LWN front page has to do with software patents, and how to respond to them. Doubtless some people are tired of the topic, but it remains important. The shape of our free software systems in the future will, unfortunately, be much affected by software patents. It is important that we figure out how to deal with them.

Hello, I was hoping to find a link that said "contact lwn.net" to send unpublished email. Can't find it. Comment on "Letter to the Editor". In a prior mail, I stated how pleased I was the borders and the text didn't go under the right side scroll bar. Unfortunately, the display area is ever so slightly larger than my screen in "Letters to the Editor". I'd also like to see at least 2 pixels between the border and text. Using Win95, netscape 4.0. 800 X 600 (I understand the display problem may be a win95 problem, but verification would be nice). In any case, I'd prefer the text not go across the entire display. I also do not know why all THIS TEXT RUNS TOGETHER when doing a preview. The format got lost. (yes, I'm hitting the "enter" key). Netscape flaw?? config setting wrong ??? I need to hit a different key ???? CR/LF not filtered properly ?? regards, Walt...........

Tip: You can use at least basic html tags like linebreaks
and paragraphs.

Don't know how the

limits, or to what kind of
standards this is

but we'll have to try out
or someone will have to put up some documentation.

hr tags,: by the way, are not allowed.
most basic types of lists: within the html40 standard seem to work, though.
em tags: does too
