I don't like that. Even if we want to break this patent with
prior art, we need to publish one for ourselves. This system
sucks, we can't choose not to be part of it if we want to be
protected. And do we have the money to publish patents anyway?
I feel pretty bad about this. What are the thoughts of Andrei and
Walter on this stuff?
