Here is the patent in question: [removed]

This has been discussed in the past before...
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take patent discussions to a sequestered list or
blog posting or something other than being inline on the email list or
digest. And please do not link patents in messages. Some of us have to
avoid patents like the plague due to clients or corporate rules and
cannot have them in email, caches, etc. Cannot read patent sites,
cannot discuss patent concepts so as to not be used against us if
legal action is taken, etc.
I'm entirely sympathetic to the anger over these issues, but please be
aware that discussing them openly and including snippets, transcripts
and links about patents subjects some on the list to things we'd
rather not have to endure.
