Hey all,

I spotted a pretty scary story on News.com, but I've lost the link;
hopefully someone less sleepy than me can track it down again.  It sounds
like 37signals is getting slapped with a lawsuit by a Virginia IP holding
company.  They are claiming violation of four different patents that cover
Active Resource and other big chunks of Rails.  Worse still, I think they're
seeking an injunction to halt development and distribution of Rails.  Can
they really do that?  And how much of the Web could go dark as a result of
that?

Anyway, if someone can dig up the story again, please post it here and/or
e-mail it to me.  Thanks.  Time for bed...
