Me too, as European citizen we are immune by such policies, but it could
real help people understand the situation.

This is only an article from the hundreds that i found trough the
internet.
Who is scared?
I think it could really help Open Source communities grow.
Stop to fight against each other, just follow our goals and our ideals.
Seneca, a Latin writer, said: "The best ideas are common property"
I trust completely in those words, and for this reason i will continue
to trust in Open Source and to help this trough Fedora Project (who has
in its DNA those words).

Actually, I think someone in the US should sue Microsoft for damages on
grounds of slander or libel or whatever it's called in the US legal system.
You see, they have been saying this repeatedly over time, without
specifying it or without any lawsuits.
One could claim in court that this way, MS (being such a.. prominent
player) is giving F/OSS users/makers a bad name in software land,
scaring customers that don't know any better away from using F/OSS, thus
damaging reputations and affecting revenues.
All it takes is a clever attorney to make it happen - force MS to put
their cards on the table, or just shut their hypocritical mouth. :)
As a European, I'm not *yet* likely to be affected by any of this, but
you never know how this patent this will develop...
