Robert,
I am really interested in this stuff. First all, I have to say that I
suspect a tad bit of paranoia in the reporting about what's happening
overseas. What sources are you quoting that talk about criminalization
for patent infringement? I'd like to read that stuff. Russell McOrmond

that they can make money with both IP and open source incorrect?
In my opinion, I do not believe that they IBM's model has a long-term

Sean,
You are making some very legitimate points. Last year, Bruce Perens, one of

Peter,
Thanks for this. I have to tell you that you are really onto an
interesting point. I am not a lawyer, but I believe that there are some
legal points here that are probably unprecedented.
I believe this particularly because the GPL has not been interpreted on
any of these topics by a
