Don't think so. Patents protect your "invention" from being used by others without paying you a lisence. I don't think you can say "well, I'm giving it away free, so I don't have to pay a lisence". Major bummer. So are we gonna' get sued or something? I freakin' hate software patents. They just don't help the industry like how hardware patents do.
